I am sure Gary knows ... and I am sure the old gunhands here know also...

Shooting weak hand, gun upside down, pulling the trigger with your little finger ...

You use a 12 o'clock hold instead of a 6 o'clock hold.
The gun recoils down.
You DO NOT use heavy loads. I used .38 Specials with 3 gr. Bullseye and 158 gr. cast bullet .. or my .22 Single Six.

When I was pastoring I had moved from Cave Creek, AZ to Oracle, AZ and taken a new church. One of the members invited my wife and I to their home for supper. While it was preparing the husband asked me if I ever shot guns. I said that I had a few times.

So we go out in his back yard and he sets up some beer bottles about 40 or 50 feet away and says, "Do you think you can hit those?"

I said, "I can try." And I pulled out my gun, held it upside down in my left hand just like in the photo and broke 5 in a row.

The husband put his gun away and we went back in the house and had a quiet meal.
