@Patterson : That is considered "gangsta" style and has no place in the profession. Emoticon Maybe its being done for the cameras. Also, lol@you waiting for my input. I was sitting on my hands there for a few. 4951

Why is there a hole in that hand?
I remember seeing a study, or it might have been an episode of Mythbusters, that proved firing a gun sideways is much less accurate. 4951

@purpletulips : Not sure, it was the first picture that I grabbed off the internet to use as an illustration.
 
I've not seen that episode of mythbusters (sounds like a good episode), but there are many who say that a marksman can justify the practicality of this method of grip. Thus why my original comment was Emoticon lol 4951
