ITT Weapon Technique and Handling.
Alright, for those of us who actually have guns and use them, let's talk about how we use them. Also, general weapons manipulation discussion.

With a pistol, I usally use a Weaver stance because to me it feels natural. However I read that Iscosoles is apparently a better and more natural "combat" stance. What exactly are their advantages and disadvantages? I get that Iscosoles is alot easier to get into, but I'm still kind of confused about why the stances are used.
