assistant
The combat pistol shooting system that Rex Applegate advocated is called the combat pistol shooting system. It is based on point shooting with a strong emphasis on training for close-range, fast-response shooting. This system is somewhat at odds with another prominent system (developed and promoted by Jeff Cooper) called the modern technique. Both systems have many supporters, with variants of Cooper's system being more commonly used.
