    WHAT IS GRIP?
    Grip

    Both the firing and non-firing hands grip the gun as high as possible (1). All four fingers of the
    non-firing hand are under the trigger guard, with the forefinger pressed against it (2). In the
    webspace between thumb and index finger of the firing hand you should feel pressure from the
    grip spur (3). If the gun has a thumb safety (1911 & CZ), the thumb of the firing hand should be
    placed there (4)
    Grip

    The thumb of the firing hand, meanwhile, is stretched along the grip and should in any case not
    exert any side pressure (5). A good indication is when the thumb of the non-firing hand is
    placed approximately at the level of the slide rails. It is easy to see how the wrist of the non-
    firing hand is angled forward for better recoil control (6) and that the arm of the non-firing
    hand is slightly higher (7).
