My preferred shooting stance is sitting down.

Very interesting...
i think its called a comabt isosolice. elbows straight while gun is outstretched, knees slightly bent, lead foot about a half step infront of the other.
Push to the isosolice, get a good trigger press and repeat on your front sight cadiance as required...
Of course, none of the targets I practice on have yet to shoot back and prove my system full of folly.
I think one has to master the basics of marksmanship first. The Weaver and Iso "stance" are good to learn as it presents to the new student as a form of "combat" trainning. In learning the martial art of pistol defence, getting the frame of mind right is the most important thing.
A real gunfight will have it's own unique set of "stances", sprints and duck & covers. Try shooting from every position and each hand every couple of sessions. Right now I have been working on my "speed rock" as I had a stovepipe last time I tried it. I must have done something in error... Got to practice till it works everytime.
At least it's fun.
I was once asked if I was "a paranoid for carrying my Kahr".
"Nope" I said, "just prepared".
" prepared for what" he asked?
"more stuff than you are"
God Bless our Troups!
I personally don't like the isosceles stance. It's too easy to be pushed off balance and does not lend itself for quick movenment. I've always utilized a weaver or modified weaver. However several of the comments are on target regarding moving and shooting.
