10-8 Pistol Test Drill #5

[Paper Tigress]

While reading through the Drills section of the site I am confused by 10-8 Pistol Test #5 drill. It states, "... reload strong hand only and fire 1 shot to the body strong hand only." Can someone clarify that for me? Wouldn't I be reloading as I ordinarily would using my weak hand to drop the mag, insert a new one and shoot strong hand? Otherwise, assuming that my weak hand was incapacitated, I would have to put my gun down to get my new mag. This drill isn't making sense to me at all.

Yes, it's intending for you to reload as if your weak hand had been disabled.

If you do not know how to do so safely, I would recommend taking a good "tactical pistol" type class as this is a common topic covered in such programs.
