That's not that bad - I see that grip all the time on the range. Keep watching, there are some truly ridiculous grips out there. I had started a collection of screencaps, but they were lost in a NAS crash last year.

Some of my favorites, by name:

The "Jack Bauer" AKA the "Cross Dominant Teacup Weaver". You all know this one.

The "Captain Jack" where the support hand is clamped around the wrist of the shooting hand - named for the lead character on 'Torchwood'.

The "Cagney and Lacy" - Isosceles stance but both index fingers on the trigger. A favorite of lady detectives on network shows.

The "Murtagh" - A "Jack Bauer" but bladed about 280? to the target with the head at a 25" vertical angle and one eye closed.

The "Rick Grimes" - Revolver held at or above shoulder level, strong hand only, canted with grip parallel to ground and with the sights well out into peripheral vision. Trigger manipulation is accompanied by a punching motion for maximum effectiveness and accuracy. Historians trace this technique back to Liberian freedom fighters.

Yeah baby!  I practice this at home in the mirror!   ::)  The punching counteracts recoil thereby improving accuracy and intimidation factor.  Most effective when wearing a mask.

I am not sure I f anyone watched the punisher on Netflix but the amount of crap wrong in there is kind of comical for a firearms heavy show/comic. They particularly like the 1911 close up hammer down while going into some fight.

Okay, I give up!  The picture on my monitor is too dark and fuzzy to see clearly.  What am I supposed to be looking at?  I see a man holding, what appears, to be some kind of semi-auto, two white bars which don't don't make much sense, and a fuzzy, indistinct  dark shape....

   Hiya Alivlo and thx for starting the thread. Hows bout pointing your eagle eye at the two John Wick movies too. It was the fist time I noticed action heros using paul castles, center axis relock system. A style I adapted to myself being left eye dominant,and left eye astigmatism and now at about age 60 with some constant cloudy floating area in my right eye, I reap the benefit of a style you need both eyes open with. Cheers.
