[QUOTE="Spooln-Rex, post: 1203162, member: 7149"] And you are completely right. I have never timed myself in trying to get the gun out and shoot may be worth looking into for sure. Either way you gotta start somewhere. Another thing is while you are starting with hands up that is realistic in its own sense as if your being approached buy someone you are unsure of. In the advanced carry class i took we went over this quite a bit. Starting by keeping situational awareness and then identifying someone's presence that you are unsure of. While you dont have to be an ass to them at first a simple "Hey hold on a sec" works for most people to get their attention and slow them down. While the potential lowlife or eager salesman will ignore this statement then you go into getting your hands in front of you with a "STOP" command. While this doesnt have to be yelling at them but you are certainly telling them to stop. After that proceed how you wish. Personally if they aren't complying after "STOP"! I'm amping it up to a point where im moving and keeping my distance with a louder command of "Back UP!!!" while getting my shirt cleared and grip established on my weapon. Because like we have seen thats what takes the longest and is the hardest part of the entire sequence. and at that point im not worried about if they see my gun because they obviously either want to do me harm or the like. and at the most you are brandishing your weapon until you point it at them. Sorry for the small rant but its something i really took with me that day especially after doing the role playing with it using red guns. Anyways i look forward to seeing the other vids and will definitely keep you guys in mind when i can get myself into another class. [/QUOTE]
