TCinVA: 5.87

15-Aug-10 – 10:05 by ToddG

Major tip of the hat to TCinVA (the artist formerly known as John_Wayne777) for an awesome run on the F.A.S.T. drill during a training event yesterday. Welcome to the Wall of Fame, dude! TC, who has contributed many tips and evaluations here at pistol-training.com, tipped the scales at a clean 5.87 on the drill. Using his father’s M&P9 must have been the real tipping point!

No doubt this is just the beginning of TC’s climb to the tippytop of the Wall of Fame list. Congratulations, TC!

Train hard & stay safe! ToddG

  5. Tim, I thought you were good at CUSS, but now you are good enough. Unless that’s not good enough for you of course.

  8. A host of friends. I have a host of friends.

    FWIW: My reload on the FAST was FUBAR and took something like 2.8+ seconds. I think I can trim that down a bit.

  9. More specifically… if your reload hadn’t been FUBAR, you might have had a chance to walk home with a shiny new challenge coin. But hey, there is always next time! 8)

  12. 5.87 with a 2.8 reload, you must have smoked the rest of the test. Nice work dude.

  14. Not to take anything away from TC but what is the ammo power factor and other specs. required for this test Todd? I ask because my wife just shot a 5.90 with a glock advantage arms conversion kit on her third try of the test. (I did a double take.) Put the full power 9mm on with stock trigger and springs and she got back to a low seven sec range as a best run–mid eights being easish. This points out the time advantage of the reduced recoil and lighter spring tension of the advantage kit.

    I would think that the trigger should obviously pass civilian legal muster (preferable be stock); the recoil springs should be stock; no funny business with weighting of magwells; ammo has to have a self def power factor–any other thoughts.
