Insight Firearms Training-Insight To The Front Sight-The “GIP”

Describes What the Gip is and How to Use it.

If you feel it is important for your students to see their front sight to make a precision shot with a pistol, then you need to know about the “Gip.” The proper use of the Gip during Firearms Training will virtually guarantee that your students will be able to see their front sight with perfect focal acuity. As you know, the more clearly you see the front sight, the more accurate your shot will be.
Insight Firearms Training’s Gip becomes an “eye magnet” to direct the eye to focus specifically and exclusively on the front sight. We use a “magnet metaphor” in combination with hypnotic suggestions that attracts the eye to the front sight and forces the pursuit movement to the Gip. If you don’t have a Gip on your front sight, then you need to create one.
In this article, we are assuming that your students (i) already know how to create a neuro pathway which isolates the trigger finger from the rest of their hand, (ii) have mastered the skill of trigger compression, and (iii) know how to enter the required emotional trance-state of “Detachment” to produce machine-like precision.

The Magic Pill: Shoot, Don’t Shoot Decisions Made Easy

Insight Firearms Training is proud to have had this Article on CCW Concealed Carry Published in the Concealed carry Magazine.
The Shoot, Don’t Shoot question is one of the core topics addressed in every self-defense class. Many instructors ask themselves how to communicate to students a clear picture of (1) When to use deadly force, (2) When to get involved in a situation that involves coming to the defense of someone else, (3) When they should carry their gun, and (4) Why it does not make sense to use deadly force to protect property.
For years I have tried to ingrain the laws and concepts of responsible gun-ownership and repeatedly stress the justification and implications of the financial and emotional costs of taking a life. Regardless of the teaching method used, the boundaries of when to or when not to escalate to the use of a firearm for personal protection is extremely difficult for many students to grasp. The numerous what-ifs combined with emotional issues, personal beliefs and values, and legal requirements, all seem to confuse the students. I searched for a magical spell that I could recite in class, one which would assist the students in resolving the complexity of making the shoot, don’t-shoot decision. I finally found a powerful visual image to simplify all the what-ifs and satisfy even the most difficult students. This is not intended to replace the block of instruction on the laws regarding self defense, firearms ownership, proper storage, and justification. It is a supplement that pulls all the information together and puts the concepts into an easy to understand format. Read more

Insight Firearms Training EliminatesThe Aversion To Recoil
Eliminating Recoil Aversion in Firearms Training is More Than Just Diagnosing the Symptoms, It’s ALL About Getting to the Root Issue!
By Matt & Sherrie Seibert
In Firearms Training we have all seen instructors utilize the shots on a student’s target to diagnose the common problem of having an aversion to the recoil of the gun. Generally instructors do a fairly good job identifying the physical manifestations that are causing the error but do not usually dig into the root of the problem. The correction of the symptoms never cures what’s ailing the shooter.
(In the example below it will be assumed that the gun is properly sighted-in, the student understands sight alignment, his dominate eye has been properly diagnosed, the gun fits his hand, his finger position on the trigger is correct, and he has the ability to achieve focal acuity on the front sight.)

Motivate New Recruits To Shoot Accurately “Instantly” With Insight Firearms Training
ABSTRACT SEQUENTIAL LEARNER
Insight Firearms Training – How The Brain Works Part 2
With, the “Abstract Sequential Learner”
the Left Side of Their Brain Processes Parts Better Than Wholes.
Cerebral Left
How Student’s Brain works is extremely important in Firearms Training. It works sequentially, processes words, grammar, syntax, and linear data. It is logical, orderly and proceeds step-by-step. This learner measures, memorizes, organizes, names, compartmentalizes, compares and will constantly be watching the clock on the wall. This learner wants schedules, predictability, organization, precision work and problems to solve. They prefer to work independently. Their strategy is both intellectual and rational; they need a sequential and structured approach.
This recruit needs the parts of the whole broken down and presented in a logical order. It is important to realize when you give the big picture of the process and your “Big Picture People” grasp the idea, your Abstract Sequential Learner students are “unable” to comprehend the material until the whole is broken into all its components and he can grasp the relationships.
