Crash course in pistol shoting at Trigger Service, Brno Czech Republic.
Trigger Service is a great place for anyone with an interest in firearms. For a gun owner it's where you can rent a range at a reasonable price or a place where you can test new firearms out of curiosity or before you buy yourself a new gun. At the moment they display 44 semiauto pistols, 9 revolvers and 31 rifles and assault weapons to choose from.
Being a novice myself, I took something of a crash course in pistol shooting under supervision of an experienced instructor. Three hours a day six days in a row, shooting up some 200 rounds/day. The tasks varied a lot. Plain target shooting of course, but also tactical training like shooting from behind shelter, changing position and switching between targets and from different distances. All in an intelligent mix with some theory and clear instructions before the different moments. It was all pretty intense and I was sort of mentally drained after each day of shooting. I think I improved a lot though, from the first day of target shooting, where I hardly hit the target from any distance beyond ten meters, to the last day when I did two tactical tests inspired from police and military training. I fired some 70 rounds on those tests and didn't miss one shot! I owe this improvement entirely to my instructor and his way of giving clear instructions that was easy to understand and at the same time giving me time and space to figure out things myself; things like balance, body position, aim etc. He himself had an impressive record with two decades in the army and some 10+ years in private sector security. And that in some truly rough places on earth.
All in all I can say that my stay in Brno and Trigger Service exceeded my expectations. I had a great and very intense time here.Trigger Service is a great place to visit for anyone who travels to Brno. In fact I think that Trigger Service is a great reason to visit Brno.
