Ready to push beyond the basics? At LA Guns and Range, we believe advanced drills are key to mastering firearm handling and sharpening tactical skills. Here are ten drills designed to elevate your shooting game.
1. El Presidente Drill
Engage three targets with two shots each, reload, and repeat. A classic for speed and accuracy under pressure.

Also called the failure drill: two shots to the chest, one to the head. Perfect for developing precision transitions.
3. Dot Torture
A 50-round accuracy test focusing on slow, deliberate shots at small targets. Brutal but effective for fine-tuning fundamentals.
