One of the biggest and most common mistakes gun owners make is assuming that they are done learning how to shoot.
Equipment used: Gen 3 Glock 34, CompTac OWB holster under a vest
Ran this twice. I knew time would be a no go on this drill so went for trying to be smooth and accurate. So much for that. First run was cold second was after warming up. Everything was well over the 2 second par time. During the second run I think I was concentrating too much on a perfect sight picture and alignment not enough on speed.

I wasn't even close on this drill, but I didn't expect to do well on it. Got a lot of work to do on my shooting.
GP Xtrim, ipsc holster. I don't have access to uspsa targets so I used an IDPA one.
Ran this as my first drill of the range visit.

So a total failure. I ran it a second time with slightly better points and then spent a lot of the rest of the range session working 25yd shots.
I squeaked in a live fire session this afternoon and shot this in between dabbling with some new 147 grain loads.

Interesting test. It was a pretty tight par for me. I have a hard time being consistent from the draw to the lower A faster than about 1.3 to 1.4 at 25. And if I hit my grip well and the front sight returns perfectly, a .40 split on the second shot is pretty good for me at this distance. More often than not though, I wind up having to do a bit of steering/adjustment before breaking the second shot. On the last pair, I botched my grip slightly on the draw and had to correct. But regardless, without the grace period, I'd have failed (more) miserably.
It was a good glimpse at perhaps what a C/D class shooter might feel like shooting the Rogers test. If you're fast enough that the par is comfy for you, it's not that big a deal. If your not...it'll eat ya up.
