Weaver vs. Isosceles
The weaver is a fine shooting position. There is one drawback however. You must practice using it to the point it becomes second nature. Studies have shown that in gunfights, people go to their natural instincts, because of normal human reaction when your are in danger. The body becomes more rigid, you crouch and aim at the threat. How many police video camera shootings have you seen, where the combatants used the Weaver stance? I have yet to see one. I would say the average person or street cop will use some version of the isosceles, of point directly at the threat in a slight crouch. Have you ever been startled by a loud sound? Your instincts are to crouch immediately and look toward the sound. Sound familar? Like I said both the isosceles and weaver are good, but I have chosen what is more natural for me, the isoceles. If you can count on the Weaver as second nature reaction to a life threatening event, I say great, it will work fine. Just be willing to practice it alot, because it is not for most people, a natural shooting position, when reacting in a gunfight.
