The Cheek Pistol

Rhett Neumayer of Demonstrated Concepts LLC has been developing and training a concept he calls the cheek pistol. This was featured on Forgotten Weapons using a .22 LR Kel-Tec. He has applied it to AR pistols and AK pistols for use in confined spaces, but getting long gun speed and accuracy from something the size of the B&T TP9 interests me most.

Is anyone here using or experimenting with this technique?

Several years ago, before the proliferation of braces, I watched a few vids of firearms instructors doing the same with AR pistols. They were fairly fast and accurate getting a cheek weld on the pistol buffer tube while pushing forward on the gun, tensioning the sling.

A very interesting concept. Too bad I’m a lefty. I don’t think it’ll replace traditional ccw simply because it’s much more bulkier, and harder to conceal. And with a jacket required to conceal it, it’s definitely not a hot summer set up. He is quite fast and accurate with it, especially the CP33 .22 LR version of the set up.

Thinking outside the box. I like that.

I see someone shooting their left hand

Any compressed position is going to come with some risk. The same has been said about firing from #2 in a four count draw. Reliable indexing would be important.

That’s awesome. The Israelíes used a similar concept with their uzis. I definitely like the upright position vs hunched over. I’m working on a Colt smg pistol build with a red dot mounted on the carry handle and this is something that I need to try.

ETA: I experimented with this concept some today at an indoor range with a Colt SMG 9mm pistol with the brace removed. I had a red dot mounted on the carry handle. At 10 yards it was stupid easy to put all of the shots into one hole as fast as I could pull the trigger. At 20 yards also stupid easy. Then the range nazi stopped my and informed me that they had a policy that guns must be shouldered. I’ll try on steel the next time I go to an outdoor range. I don’t see any learning curve simple straight forward.
