Week 14: iHack

[jthhapkido]

Please let the massive utter public humiliation of BaiHu and jthhapkido serve as warning to all who follow...

Ah, so nice to be known for something on this forum!

Oh wait... [insert vomiting sound...]

[sigh]

The stupidly annoying thing is that I had plenty of time! Just really amazing levels of suckage on trigger control.

Going back out to try it tomorrow, if I get home from work before the sun sets. (This "dark at 5pm" thing is really cutting into my range time.)

I attempted the drill...pure suckage. Ran it from a high compressed ready.

5/9 - 3.85 (-1), 3.20, 3.48
6/9 - 3.28, 2.99 (-1), 2.82 (-1)
7/9 - 3.02, 3.14, 2.61
7/9 - 2.69, 3.41, 2.55 (-1)

Aggregate score - 25/36

My press out apparantly sucks. There was a very noticeable pause at full extension. I don't think I broke a first shot under 2 seconds the entire time.

Ran it twice last night.

Start position: low ready, Gen4 Glock 21

• 7/9
• 8/9

After success on the first run and feeling pretty awesome, I tried it again from the holster, unconcealed.

Adding the draw to the equation actually caused me a ton of problems, because I've been practicing a more "competition" style draw, where I don't use a press out. For drawing to a low percentage target...it kind of sucks.

You passed ... twice. How is that suckage?

I actually found this drill to be more difficult than the actual Hack-Headshot standards; a 6x6 target at 5 yards is a hell of a lot bigger, even if they're further apart than the dots.

The big problem was I couldn't bring myself to slow down. Breaking the three shots from the holster under 3 seconds wasn't the hard part, it was telling myself that I didn't need to do it in 2.6 seconds and to use that extra 0.4 seconds to actually hit those f****** circles.

Oh crap, you guys have me doubting myself now. If it wasn't soaking rain right now I'd go try it but the targets would be mush by the time I was done.

I was hoping for a little better, I think I should have done better anyway.

Cold, from the high ready, on a 2.9sec turning target:

String 1 - 6/9
String 2 - 4/9
String 3 - 8/9
String 4 - 7/9

25/36 total. Definitely not my best work.

I'm used to running this drill on 3x3" Post-Its. The 2" dots make it enormously more difficult.
I may run it again when my new connector comes in.

Ran it twice tonight.

First was with my new G26. Stock (including the crappy plastic sights) except for a Lone Wolf 3.5 connector and Glock extended slide release. Using the turning targets at the NRA Range set to a 3s exposure, I got: 8, 8, 8, and 9 (33 total) from underneath an untucked polo using my G17 Shaggy.

Then later in the evening I ran it with my G17 test gun (iron sights, laser off) on the clock:

1. 2.67, 2.90, 2.53 (-2) = 7/9
2. 2.70, 2.83 (-2), 2.83 = 7/9
3. 2.61, 2.74, 2.86 = 9/9
4. 2.65 (-1), 2.78, 2.81 = 8/9

Total: 31/36

Ran through it twice last night. The first time was with a Sig P226 in 9mm from the low ready.

2/9 1st string
4/9 2nd string
5/9 3rd string
7/9 4th string.

I was rushing way to fast at first. Shot all 3 shots at just over 2 seconds. Once I slowed down some and stay under 3 seconds, I was able to make more hits.

The 2nd time around I shot it with a Sig P226R in .40 S&W again from the low ready.

5/9 1st
8/9 2nd
5/9 3rd
7/9 4th.
