I was practicing draw and fire 2 rounds today at 15m. Just a snatch draw and point toward the target, no sight picture,pull the trigger twice, and hit the target half the time. The grip was lousy and there was no sight picture , just bang bang, just for speed, not accuracy. Someone asked me later how fast I was doing it and I told them my best was.98 sec for 2 rounds. Nobody believed me. Surely there's lots of guys out there who can do that or even better.Was my timer wrong? Maybe I didn't wake up from last night and I'm still dreaming.
just out of curiosity......

Ick towards the lack of conscious aiming. You may hit 1/2 the time but where is the other shot going? A snatch draw and double tap around 1-2 secs isn't that tough without concealment garments, but it depends on the rig and the gun as well as the shooter.
Sure, with a snatch draw it's possible to get even faster times than that for two shots, but it doesn't count for anything unless you hit the target consistently, preferably in the A zone. I used to get mid to high .6's back when I practiced that draw, and with a .13 split a total of .76 to .85 was easy. But as I said; it was just pointless noise since I was averaging minute-of-refrigerator accuracy.

I was doing this just for fun . I know that uncontrolled speed is useless and the snatch draw is not the best way to go. I'd never try that in a match since I was only hitting the target 6 or 7 times out of ten at 15 yards. My real world time is more like 1.3 first shot and 1.5 or 1.6 second shot. But still, it's fun to try it......
