Glock 26 - Gen 4
JM Custom IWB3
10.86 sec
15 A Zone Hits
All about those 20 yard hits.. Slowed down to get all A zone hits. I'll go faster next time since I'm allowed a C.

Glock 17 rtf2 under a polo in a Dark Star Gear aiwb

Total time - 10.75
10a 5c
Fail

I didn't make time nor hits. 4 C's were from the 20 yard run. For some reason I was focused on the lower part of the A zone(possibly because of how it was taped with it being the most clean/tapeless area of the A zone) and then proceeded to pull 2 into the low part of the C zone and 2 left into the C zone. After realizing my mistake, I intentionally aimed at the more taped upper part of the A zone and cleaned the 10yd portion. The other C was on the 5 yard string. I ran it another time with worse results, as I let the speed thing get into my head and threw more shots slower...go figure. I was close enough that I feel it is attainable but I will need to be on point and be shooting my best. Definitely not a par I can make without a fair amount of effort.

Glock19 w/RMR Fricke AIWB holster, t shirt concealment.
Time; first run 11.86 2C's, best of 6 runs 10.52 1C.
Fail

This is probably a fairly easy test for some of the better shooters. Heck Gabe can probably make the standard SHO. For me it is difficult but at least within the realm of possibility. I put my first and best run in just to show that improvement can happen. Of course the hardest stage for me is the 20 yard one, but I probably have the most room for improvement on the 10 yard stage where my time to first shot was way to slow.

[Clobbersaurus]

Beretta Elite II, Blade-Tech Belt and OWB holster.

String 1: 4.44 (2C)
String 2: 3.01 Clean
String 3: 2.27 Clean

Total time: 9.72 The extra C on the first run made it a fail....

9.9 seconds. Hey, it's still in time haha

Decided to go slow at the 10 because I figured I'd rush at 10 feeling comfortable and throw a shot. Took my time and still threw a C lol close C though! Decided to just hammer it out at 5 yards.

[jdesro]

M&P 9 Compact, JMCK AIWB, hoodie for concealment

Shot this twice today.

First run:

String 1: 4.05 3 C's
String 2: 3.64 all A's
String 3: 2.56 all A's

Total: 10.25 sec.

FAIL for both time and excessive C's

Second run:

String 1: 5.30 1 C
String 2: 2.93 all A's
String 3: 2.42 1 C

Total: 10.35 sec.

FAIL for over time limit.

Need to work on this - not as easy as it first sounds.

The range where I shot this doesn't have either a 5-yard line or a 20-yard line, so I shot at 10, 15, and 25 yards.

Equipment used: Gen4 G19, Ameriglo front sight, Dawson adjustable rear. Holster was a K-rounds IWB at 3:00. S&B 124-grain ammo. No concealment.
Total time: 12.26 seconds
25 yards: 5.46 seconds, three C's (the two wide ones and the low one)
15 yards: 4.08 seconds, all A's
10 yards: 3.08 seconds, one C (the center one)

One attempt, failed.



Anything I noticed:
1. The way I hung this target made it hard to see the head on my club's 25-yard line. I think that I held for the center of what I could see the most easily, which explains the low hits.
2. I was short on time, so I fired one five-shot group at 25 then shot for record. A little warm-up might have improved my score. Or not. I may shoot it again this weekend if I have time.
3. Not too proud of this one.

Sorry I can't remember the specific times however I ran this drill under Mike Pannone's supervision and made 18 in 10 with 1 Charlie.

Pistol was an Ed Brown SF in .45 ACP

17 A's, 1 Charlie
Pass - under 10 Sec.

There was an instructor from the Sig Academy in the class (Steve Gilchrist) who made time and score for 21 in 10.
