Best grip and stance while shooting a Luger

Hi,

You can also try the traditional German style. One hand, elbow flexed to be able to get the distance between the sights and your eyes to an acceptable level and gently squeeze the trigger. Body at 45 degree angle.

Wearing the proper attire is also recommended

There is an interesting cartoon showing Georg Luger at a Swiss shooting match. He flexed his elbow so much that only a few inches remained between the rear of the gun and his eyes
