Basically center the weapon on your own torso extend your arms and make sure the target is within your perceived shoulders.

draw a line from each shoulder at the top of the arm and turn your torso until the bad guy is within your shoulders and fire.
We've been learning to shoot. (I was never very good with a handgun, anyway, and even that was almost 50 years ago.

Nothing like learning from a highly trained cop. His tactical lessons have really been quite excellent. As you said, he started us with aiming but quickly moved to defensive shooting.

Again, as you said, all about extended the arms and acquiring the target. Another 2-3,000 rounds and we'll be able to hit something at like 15 feet. LOL
