[QUOTE="TerryP, post: 3033139, member: 1564"] I think that we need to train to fight assailants that have closed the distance. About seven yards down to physical contact, with an emphasis on 5' to 0'. Whatever you are using needs to be drawn quickly, cleanly and from a variety of physical positions. You dont need to be lightning fast, you need to be smooth and without error on the draw. Gun handling and trigger control can be worked using dry training methods. Shooting drills the wizard drill Ken Hackathorn the bill drill the El Presidente -not really a close range drill but tests multiple skills- google shooting drills, you tube has lots of video on this subject Use IDPA or USPSA targets to practice shooting strong hand only at close range getting accurate shots including head shots quick and clean. Be sure to practice multiple close retention methods. Having the skill to get good hits out to 100 yards with a handgun is a good thing but if you wind up in a fight its probably gonna be at close range and may involve multiple assailants. [/QUOTE]
