Do you carry your CCW with +1?

[Carnes]

practcie makes perfect right...

Actually, it does not. Practice makes permanent. Perfect practice makes perfect.

Just keep in mind that whatever you practice is what you will learn and what you will default to in a stress situation. So make sure you have the utmost confidence that whatever you are practicing is in fact the best technique for you.

For example, if you practice shooting "gangsta style" for a couple years, it will be harder for you to learn how to shoot in a good stance with aimed shots than if you had started practicing aimed shots in the first place. Also, you will have a significant period of time where even though you prefer aimed shots, you will default to "gangsta style" in an unexpected stress situation. (this is not to say you shoot 'gangsta style' just making an example to illustrate the point)

The best thing you can do is participate in some professional training programs so you can get a real sense for what some of the best techniques are, why the experts prefer certain ones and which ones work best for you.

The saying that old habits die hard is true, and it is not fun to realize you have invested a lot of time in doing something wrong, especially when you know you will have to invest even more time in correcting the bad habit.

Here is mine, though it's a little "apples to oranges" as I don't have a cover garment on in the video.

I'm at the end...

1.21, twice.

With a cover garment, I'm up around 1.6, usually.

Not having the benefit of a shot timer, and being that you took a precision shot....I guestimated that you were between 2.5-3.0 secs to get that gun up and ready to go...just looking at the youtube counter.

If I can snip some video I have on DVD...I'll get you some eye opening draw time footage...not sure if my comp will do it for me.

1.21....

thats pretty damn fast. I'd rep ya if I could

I always carry a weapon fully loaded, preparing and anticipating that I'm gonna need to use it. Then I go through the day hoping that never becomes a reality.

1.2 aint anything special. The IPSC Masters and GM's would make that look like childs play.

I've seen vids of guys hitting a target like that from the draw in ~.6
Not with an IWB behind 3:00 and a 5.5lb Glock trigger...but they'd still spank the crap out of me with the same setup I use.

Anywho, thanks, but I'm not anything special....I just like pushing myself.

I usualy carry my M&P with full mag. So I have 17rds(16 in mag, 1 in tube).
But I guess I could carry 17 in mag, and 1 in tube total of 18rds.

Never did it. Honestly I never thought about it. Strange, since I'm believe more ammo is better then more punch, but less ammo count.

Do you guys carry +1?

At the tender young age of 53, and having carried both on and off the job for more than 25 years, I ALWAYS carry my weapon with one in the chamber.

But hey, what do I know? I'm just a 53 year old young punk.

Of all the threads on the forum, this is the one that gets revived?

i dont carry +1 cuz it makes a clicking sound when i pick up the gun cuz my clip is 12 round in my compact 9mm , but i carry a extra 12 round magazine with me.so i carry my gun with 1 in the chamber and 11 in the magazine so i dont feel the clicking.
