Okay, so the thread is no longer about pocket guns in general, and is now one that should have been titled "Pocket carry vs Belt carry"?
Or is it now a caliber war?

Personally do not recommend a Pocket gun or small barrel gun to anyone but advanced shooters who plan to train frequently and diligently.Good point. The OP wanted info on an LCP vs. a 442. I don't know if we resolved that for the OP. So let's get back to that question. Opinions on other things can go to other threads.
Yes.Just curious Browning, I take it you work in a emergency room, EMT?
Yes. EMS, not ER based.Just curious Browning, I take it you work in a emergency room, EMT?
Not everything has to be a war.Okay, so the thread is no longer about pocket guns in general, and is now one that should have been titled "Pocket carry vs Belt carry"?

Actually, that's not training, that's practice.DRAWING the Gun. It becomes a habit. And this repetition over and over becomes a natural reflex and you will learn to do it very fast. So very easy to do and so convenient. There are NO excuses to not train to do this daily. And please do not try and tell me you will not get very good at this.
5 minutes a day does not sound like a lot of training. But , on a
We are talking in this thread about Pocket guns or small barrel guns, we are not talking about duty pistols target shooting, etc.
My point is, you can do what ever you set your mind to do. It is just a matter of doing it.
Good idea, but only for those who already know what to do and how to do if. That's where training comes in--which is after or accompanied by education.Lol, I really do not care if you refer to it as Practice, training, what ever. Just do it.
Training can help a lot in finding out what one should be good at, and that can help with choosing the tool.Find what you can be good at, the gun you like, but train,
The name of the thread is pocket pistols.

Actually, it's "Pocket Gun", and I go by the OP's query, not the thread title. half a dozen pages of bickering about whether or not "pocket guns" should be in anyone's carry rotation doesn't help him decide between a 642, LCR, LCP, etc. See post #152 (the one directly beneath mine.)
actually that is training, not practice. https://www.thefreedictionary.com/trainingActually, that's not training, that's practice.
This thing is *STILL* going ? Good Lord above
Not as he described it.actually that is training, not practice.
That definition is so general as to be meaningless.training is learning and practicing with a specific purpose in mind.
Yep.obviously, jeb stuart has a specific purpose in mind;
No, but if you share expenses with other students, it is a lot more cost objective than hiring your own instructor.don't think you have to go to a "class" to aquire knowledge.
Why would you ever think that?practice is a generic term that, in this case, is used in a derogatory fashion.
What's that about?practice without purpose is just exercise and, while useful, does not satisfy a purpose.
That doesn't make any sense.so, I hope everyone trains rather than practices.
It sounds too much like a bananaIn a effort to get shooters off the words Practice and Train, and get them more into just doing both and focused on gettting better at all your skills. I have come up with a new word for the gun world. Feel Free to use it anytime.
Practice/ train "Practain"
Practice, Train, Maintain skills. It Encompasses all.
