    When I took the class for my HQL and CCW licenses, we had to qualify with a handgun that was 9 mm. caliber or larger. I took my 1911. When I went to fire it, the instructor asked if I shot a revolver. I said yes. He then told me I was holding the 1911 improperly as I was doing a revolver hold. He showed me how to place my non-dominate hand on the left side of the pistol (exactly as shown in the video). Even though it felt a little strange (it doesn't now), I shot a 24 out of 25 for my qualification.

    So, this article is a great article for properly holding a pistol.
