Practice, man - it all comes with practice.

Speaking of which, are there ranges that allow you to draw from holster?

 

Also I keep telling myself to slow down(not that I'm exceptionally quick or anything) but once I hear that timer beep I forget all of that

If you're on the sides at Bayonne they probably will allow you to. I was told once that they didn't allow it, but if you're on the sides and it's late and they're not watching, have at it :)

 

Also I think they do allow it at SCFGPA depending on the situation - Glenn/j0n/MrP or another member will have to confirm that.

Best thing you can do is dry fire. Of course with NO AMMO! Practice holstering and unholstering a d pick a spot on a wall or an object. When you go to the range, practice your accuracy and speed. Speeding up while remaking on target. Do some research and you'll get more information that can help you.

+1 for all the vids Nick

now, to bookmark mrp's video and study it so I can get on his level..

 

Rofl, it's easy! Just waste time you should be studying for finals practicing your draws/reloads. Oh and get extremely lucky, that works wonders for me. On a more serious note, I try to be as accurate as possible in practice and then speed up a bit during matches. I've found a great wealth of information at BrianEnos.com, also.

 

I realized yesterday that I am forming a sort of addiction to IDPA. Next month my GF and I are going to a concert that I bought her tickets for as a christmas present. It's about 2.5 hrs from the town we both live in (both of us still live at our parents homes at the moment), and should end around midnight. I find myself hoping that she DOESN'T want to get a hotel room and spend the night, since I probably won't be able to make it to IDPA the next day on time...

 

Oh lord. :blush:

      The Tax Man Commeth

      By leahcim · Posted

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      By maintenanceguy · Posted

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
