How much practice is enough?

[Nik Habicht]

My 1911's are only useable with arched main spring housings ---- without them the gun won't index at all.  But I still find the transition from the Glock to be significant.

This is a great topic! What exactly are your various dry fire routines ie: how & what  exactly do you practice?

[Steve Moneypenny]

what don't we practice would be the next question, practice draws a lot, transitions a good bit, reloads a lot, drawing while beginning to move, think of every little bitty thing you can see when you shoot and i am sure someone here practices it.

i even know one guy who practices unloading to show clear. i am still clueless on WHY he does this. but he does.

I used to load the Burner Series vol 5 when doing dry fires.  Jerry's comments every now and then provides the rest I need between executions.  Then I got a small utility for my palm that provided par times (couldn't afford a real timer yet ) and used it for draws, reloads, target transitions and other combinations.  I usually find a par time I'm comfortable with (and with the least possible execution error.)  And from time to time I just  try to speed things up a bit. BE safe.
