Impressive time!

I tried out the drill with airsoft. With a single shot fired there shouldn't be much time difference between live fire and airsoft on this drill. Other modifications were that I lifted a 35lb plate instead of a 30lb backpack and was targeting a smaller 6 inch dot. If you're gonna do it, GO big!

Warmed up a bit before, working on both draws for time and accuracy at speed. Then ran about ten iterations. Decent exercise! Lifting the plate did slow my speed a bit, but could still hit 1.55 sec. Got some more practice to do to beat Garret.

I know those sorts of ranges well and don't like them either. Those ranges are literally banning realistic self defense practice.

Running the drills in your backyard with airsoft gets you most of it, at a lower price. Other than that its either a drive or gun club membership.

Made a few changes to some of these drills based on what targets I had on hand and ran similar rifle drills with my Airsoft AEG M4.

Found doing 10 pushups, or 10 lunges, or 10 squats before shooting didn't affect me that much. When I tried 10 burpees, 10 clapping pushups, or a 80 yard run, that made things measurably tougher, an took me a little more time to get accurate shots. Toughest was a 160 yard run before shooting from the standing position at a scaled 60 yard silhouette. Only achieved 70% accuracy on that one (my only misses out of 21 targets).

Tried the Squatting shooting position and while it was not as consistent for me as sitting, it is super fast to get into.

GARRET MACHINE, from the IDF, is showing how he likes to run shooting drills for both pistol and rifle:

Mixing fitness into the drill is not only good for your health, but makes it more realistic as well.
