Most new shooters grip their pistol wrong, and it’s costing them accuracy and control. In this video, NRA-certified instructor Mike breaks down the two fundamental principles of a proper pistol grip: leverage and friction.
Leverage means getting a high grip on the pistol, positioning both hands as close to the bore axis as possible. The higher the grip, the more control over muzzle rise, and the faster the gun comes back on target after every shot.
Friction means maximizing palm contact with the frame of the pistol. More surface area equals more stability, less wobble, and a more consistent shot-to-shot experience, especially for newer shooters still building their fundamentals.
These two principles work together. Get both right, and the gun becomes an extension of your hands instead of something fighting against you.
Whether this is the first time holding a pistol or a chance to clean up bad habits picked up at the range, this breakdown is a great starting point for building a grip that actually holds up under real conditions.
