Please read the rules (http://pistol-forum.com/showthread.php?1837-Drill-of-the-Week) before participating in this thread.
Week 66: Cold AMRAP
results may be posted until 11:59pm EST on Friday 10-May-2013.
Range: 7yd
Target: 8" circle, IPSC A-zone, or 8.5x11 sheet of paper
Start position: from concealment or a duty/retention holster
Rounds fired: varies
Another low round count drill for those struggling to keep their ammo supplies intact.
Set up your target at seven yards. You will draw from either concealment or a duty/retention holster. If your range does not allow you to draw from a holster, begin from the ready position (gun in whatever condition you normally carry it).
As with last week this drill must be performed before any other shooting that day. These must literally be the very first rounds you fire.
The drill will involve setting a PAR time based on your normal skill level drawing to the same target at 7yd:
If your 1-shot draw time is usually 1.5s or less, set a PAR of two seconds.
If your 1-shot draw time is usually > 1.5s and < 2.5s, set a PAR of three seconds.
If your 1-shot draw time is usually more than 2.5s or you do not know what your draw time usually is, set a PAR of four seconds.
Set up the target, set your PAR, and on the beep you will draw and get as many hits as possible within the PAR time. Any shots fired after the PAR runs out will not count whether they were hits or misses. Record both the total number of rounds you fired and the number of hits you scored within the PAR time.
Please report the following when you post your results in this thread:
Start position (concealed, duty, or ready).
PAR time selected.
Number of shots fired.
Number of hits scored.
Make & model of gun and holster.
Training with firearms is an inherently dangerous activity. Be sure to follow all safety protocols when using firearms or practicing these drills. These drills are provided for information purposes only. Use at your own risk.
