Just ordered the Book "Protect yourself and Family with a Snubnose revolver. by Grant Cunningham.
Here is a excerpt that I found so realistic that needs to be considered:
Do your skills match your life? Take, for example, reloading the handgun. In a competition contest, where most reloading techniques come from, no one is shooting back. Regardless of the amount of stress (which in competition is nothing more than simple performance anxiety), the body's natural threat reactions have not been activated.
Because of that reality, the competitive shooter's re-loading technique has be maximized to speed under the conditions it's likely to be used: on a nice, flat range with obstructions that have been identified beforehand and against a target that does not move.
Now take those same skills and apply them to your world. Your attacker is trying to hurt you; your attention and vision are forced you from your attacker; the ground under the smooth soles of your dress shoes is wet, uneven and strewn with trash; it's dark;and the rain makes the gun and your ammunition slippery. The reloading technique optimized for speed under the ideal conditions will succeed. The difference is in the context of application and it matters.
I am looking forward to reading and studying further from this book. I have always admired Grant and always useful info.
