Well, Mark, I guess you are going to have to swing through this part of the country and educate about 2/3 of the ACs, MDs and SOs, because the "Failure Drill with FTN if head not hit" is just dead common.
A true "gamer" is not going to take a 2.5sec. penalty to dump one round. The penalty far out ways the time saved.
I think one way to make the COF legit, would be to make the reengagement of the head shots after retreating to cover, were a separate string of fire. You can't change the rules by saying it would make since in the real world, otherwise that would justify me doing a slide lock reload in the open, if thats where I went dry.
