Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Gene's stuff is the best. I run his HSGI suspenders on several of my tac rigs and swear by them. I think it helps get the weight off my lower back and hips especially if I run sub-loads (which I'm not fond of). One hint though sew the straps together at the back "X" to keep them more stable on your shoulders. I run them under my armor and they don't bother me a bit.
  2. This is absolutely a "tactical" vs "sport" difference. Topping off in holster or "admin load" is very common in police/tactical training. Remember most defensive users don't carry a Barney mag. Loading in one certain way is good from a continuity stand point but I've never had a problem with doing a drawn gun top off in the right environment. For tactical-type classes on a "hot range" topping off safely is best done while in the holster or after a string of fire. This is a perfect example of gear/mission dictating tactics. I think a "tactical reload" or "load with retention" is a better way to do business so you don't have to go swinging away at your holstered pistol to seat the mag but it is still of no use during a break in the action on a "hot" range. I tend to get kinda excited if students pull their guns while I'm 'splaining stuff in front of the line.
