Spontaneous Emergency Reload

Next time you’re on the range, try this emergency reload drill with your students or training partners. Rob Pincus demonstrates this response-testing drill to teach you how to prepare for the unexpected need for a reload during a defensive shooting. This exercise is important for testing your ability to perform under circumstances that you can’t predict. If you’re not doing counter-ambush exercises, you’re just performing choreographed mechanical training, which you should try to avoid.
