Great topic as I just returned from three days of training (P.O.S.T.) Active Shooter/ Terrorism class. My thumb is still sore from constantly reloading my magazines (LadyCop knows the feeling.
Lots of shooting and tons of roleplaying out at the Sheriff's training facility in Otay Mesa (right next door to Donovan State prison!).
What I learned quickly is unless it becomes somewhat instinctive the extra strength adrenaline that will be coursing through your veins at the time of this type of scenario will prevent you from responding with any precision and accuracy. And, as we all know- that is exactly what is required to handle a firearm.
