Other than the Wall drill, what drills do you recommend for no ammo (dry fire)? What do you practice when you (must) have an empty gun?

Origami might pop in and answer this, he probably does more dry fire than any five of the rest of us combined.
Personally, other than sights/trigger work, my dry fire revolves around manipulations. I'll work on draw (2H, SHO, WHO), reloads (2H, SHO, WHO), malf clearances (2H, SHO, WHO) and the like.
Back when I was shooting competition more seriously I'd also spend time doing transitions: start aimed in on one target with the trigger back then drive the gun to the next target while resetting and pressing the trigger.
Todd,
I've been running your 4 week dry fire routine sporadically and always end up feeling like a bumbling, fumbling idiot when I get to the WHO Draw part. I just suck at it and have no idea if what I'm doing is even close to what others do, or what should be done.
Can you point me to some visual aid that demonstrates a WHO draw from AIWB?

There are a number of different ways to draw WHO from aiwb. All of them have some pretty significant dangers involved and it's something I wouldn't be comfortable trying to explain online.
Thanx for the tips, guys. But I'm a newbie and I'm not sure what the acronyms mean. Thanks again. (I'm guessing 2 hands, strong hand only, weak hand only, appendix inside waist band ????)
