Title: Defensive Pistol Practice and Training (Link)
Post by: b5.5dan on January 06, 2012, 07:28:36 PM
Howdy, y'all... It's been a while, so I thought I would post this. It was a good read, and there are some good ideas...

Also, it got me to thinking... We have some great guys here with some wonderful experience. I wonder if some of our members could contribute ideas for training and "keeping sharp" that would be helpful to the rest of us. Goodness knows I could use some help...

               Hey thanks for taking the time to make both those video's. Question: does that tactical load work on all brands or just CZ or just that or certain models of CZ?

              Up until today, there is no way I would have slapped a mag into the pistol that hard. Then again, since I load a tracer round third from the bottom, my slide never gets a chance to lock back. But, that as it may be, Every time I saw that done with a 1911 the top round got jolted out of postion and you ended up with a jam? Or am I just really really old and haven't kept up?
 
             There was a definite line between just hard enough to seat the mag and hitting it too hard and ending up with a jam.

1911s are notorious for mag feed issues. The only pistols that I've done that Tac reload with are my CZ and a Beretta 92F. I recommend finding a safe place and trying it yourself with your own pistols. A military operator showed me that while I was taking a class with him.

        OK I'll try it have the eye gets fixed. I am going to have a hard time actually trying that trick after all these years of not hit my mags that hard.  :laugh:
