I've seen a few different "operators" on you tube say that the first Sicario is very accurate.

BTW The tactical gun style you're describing from John Wick and which Is so popular now is called Center Axis Relock and was developed by a British police officer called Paul Castle.

The idea is to ha e your gun close enough to your face so you can use it with both eyes open (the sights at the same distance that you'd hold a book you were reading) and to "maximise weapons retention" which is effectively saying make it as hard as possible to take my weapon from me.. Apparently most gunfights are at less than 8ft distance from the other person, so the idea was to develop a gun use style than worked in that scenario.

Thanks for the info. But i was really talking about the reload. I’ll have to find the scene. He bends down and clutches the gun just below the knee, with the pistol sitting tightly between his thigh and calf area. He then reloads with one hand. The technique is one hand reloading if the other hand is injured. I can’t remember where or how he used the technique.

Thanks for the gun style mentioned above. Interesting read

Id be surprised if there weren't videos on it. There's a very similar one handed chamber check he does that there are a load of YouTube videos telling you how to do it.

It will take me some time to find, but I’ll find it. I’ve saved your comment, not that you care, but ib like to go full circle on discussions. Yeah the one handed chamber check is impressive. I first saw it and my brain exploded into 17 pieces
