This part of the forum seems to be underutilized so I thought I would post a challenge for all that actually read this section.
At the top of this section olyeller has posted a link to some handgun drills. I think that we could pick one of the drills a week to perform. The only rules are that you must do the drill in the same gear that you actually carry with. So I will start off this challenge with a drill that I found on another forum.
the drill
Target: USPSA or IDPA
From concealment draw and fire 1 shot and reload then fire 2 only clean runs count (A zone on USPA target or -0 on IDPA)
I did this today with the following equipment
Glock 17 & S&W M&P 9c
Milt Sparks Versa max 2
Comp Tac double mag holder
Heavy sweatshirt for concealment
Best times
Glock 17- 6.07
M&P 9c - 6.24
Things I found though this test
On the M&P I need a full size mag for a reload, a couple of times after a reload I pulled the trigger only to get a click! I didn't seat the mag!
At least I got some experience on the Tap, Rack, Bang drill.
I would also like to find a mag pouch that fits closer to the body for concealment.
Anyone else up for a challenge?
