What is the name of the International/Olympic Free Pistol shooter that held the gun gangster style. Does anyone have pictures of the gun and how he modded it? Just curious not planning on trying it LOL!

Maybe gangsters hold their Glocks Minder-style, you know, for extra accuracy?

Of course the gangsters got it wrong, they shoot with the palm facing down verses the obviously superior palm up style of Minder!! LOL

I saw him decades ago at some Championship match. As you can barely make out from pictures of Minder shooting, in addition to the palm-up grip, his pistol's front and rear sights had been moved to the palm-side also.

Amazing shooter.

He held the pistol that way due to a childhood injury to his forearm.
