I have become more then familer with my glock over the last 1 1/2. I can put 13 rounds in a pie plate at 25 yards, though not quickly but good enough.
I normally shoot at long ranges 25 yards, easier to go from 25 to 5 then the other way.
I applied for my CCW permit and think I should do some practice where I holster draw fire once maybe twice, then repeat.
IS that the best idea.
ALso is the fobus holster the best for a glock and what is the diff between the paddle and belt types, which do you like?
A Fobus holster is good for range time and thats about it. Your handgun can be ripped from a Fobus holster in a split second....they will split in half.
A good holster is going to cost you a little bit of money. For Kydex holsters do a google for Comp-tac or Sidearmour....these two companies make some great kydex holsters.
I personally use a Bianchi Carry Lock belt holster for my Glock 27. It is a belt holster with a secondary retention device on it. Go over to glocktalk dot com and you can read all you want about holster types and brands. They also have a classifieds section where you can find all sorts of parts and holsters for your Glock.
I will second what someone said about about your shooting distance. Most shootings occur within 21 feet..... practice close....practice point shooting.....practice clearing your firearm(unloaded) from its holster....practice with your off hand only, strong hand only, and laying on the ground. These are some common scenarios you may run into.
