[6 hand drawing of hand holding pistol]

The importance of the hand position on the grip of a pistol cannot be overemphasized. The hand should be as high on the grip as is allowed by the rear extension of the hammer spur of the revolver. The gun is cradled under the trigger guard in the left hand. The hammer should be drawn back to the full cock position with the right thumb.

The left thumb should then be placed between the hammer and the frame to prevent accidental firing. The "V" formed by the right thumb and the first finger is then fitted as high as possible on the grip. The heel of the hand is solidly behind the grip so gun will recoil straight back.

The first finger should be placed on the trigger almost up to the first joint. The left thumb stays between hammer and frame until the gun is extended for firing.

After extending the gun, the right thumb rests along the frame on top of the cylinder latch.

While the cocking motion is going on the pistol is being brought back to aiming position.

If held correctly the pistol will recoil almost straight up and will stay in line with the target.
