Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Years ago when I did my armed securities training, we went to a hillbilly ass shooting range, that was basically just some dudes big ass back yard. Did the double gun thing. Turns out, almost everyone unconsciously aims with their dominant hand and tracks that with their non dominant. Meaning you're basically shooting st the same target with both guns even when you think you're trying to go for both targets.

Some people, however, will just randomly shoot with their non dominant hand, and it's incredibly dangerous how wide those shots go. Like, damn near beside or behind them. Humans, it turns out, are fucking dumb

I can't imagine double aiming like that, maybe slowed down a lot. i could see training alternating fire on a single target being possible with practice.

It was very fun, but also terrifying. People could have been legitimately hurt that day with as wide as some of those shots went.
