VIVA VILLAMOR
Muscle and Fitness Hers South Africa|July - August 2020
We had the opportunity to sit down with the extremely talented Jamie Villamor and talk about how she prepares herself mentally and physically for her sport of being a competitive pistol shooter for Armscor and Rockisland Armory. Not only is she beautiful inside and out but she brings an incredible energy with her everywhere she goes and it's apparent that people absolutely love to be around her.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A COMPETITION SHOOTER? Competition shooting is a combination of proficiency tests of accuracy, precision, and speed shooting. A competitor shoots several stages in a match and all stages require the competitor to have a stage plan in which you are given a short amount of time to form and execute. The sport includes use of a pistol, rifle, and shotgun.

WHAT DO YOU SHOOT? WE SEE YOU HAVE SEVERAL FIREARMS.

I primarily shoot pistol in the single-stack division. Recently I started shooting AK matches in which I shoot Tactical Edge’s Comrade. Shooting the AK has been extremely challenging yet fun for me.

YOU HAVE OPTICS ON YOUR AK HOWEVER NOT ON YOUR PISTOL? DO YOU RECOMMEND OPTICS FOR A BEGINNER OR DO YOU NEED TO GET TO A CERTAIN LEVEL BEFORE YOU SHOULD TRY THEM?

I do shoot iron sights on my 1911 pistol, which means I do not shoot with an optic. With my Comrade AK-47 unmagnified optics like my Holosun HS510C help to make shooting more intuitive and frankly more fun for beginners. You don’t have to squint one eye and you don’t have to line anything up. It takes the pressure off of the shooter and makes shooting feel more natural. With my Holosun optic, it shortens the time it takes to aim, so I finish the course faster than I can with traditional iron sights.

FOR BEGINNERS LOOKING AT TRYING OUT THE SPORT IS THERE ONE PIECE OF GEAR THAT WOULD HELP PERFORMANCE?
