  • No tap n' rack? Whack that mag, it might be the problem in a failure to fire!

  • hehe the dummy rounds worked it showed her grabbing the trigger. I like her overall technique though.

  • not flinching bad at all on snap caps good job

  • uh what ammo was this cuz i will never buy it....

  • @colini26 not sure if serious. live rounds with snap caps mixed in to practice failure to fire drill (tap rack bang [she skipped the tap part])

  • @colini26 it's snap caps. it's a self defense drill. i was google'n about it and basically idpa is a pistol defense competition, jams can happen so training "tap rack bang" helps out with clearing malfunctions. sorry still new to all this competition stuff but i hope this info help.

  • :15 she farts

  • Notice the dip of the front of the gun on the failure to fires? Were you shooting low with some regularity? The dummy rounds teach more than remedial action, they can spotlight something like a pre-ignition push.

  • What's with all the type 1 malfunctions in a Glock? Is the lady limp 'wristing'

  • @USRimfireShooter She's training with snap caps.

  • jerk everytime no bullet is present. trying to control recoild vs letting hte gun push back and aim.

  • Trigger pull needs to turn into trigger squeeze.

  • flinch!

  • @dashwerks Who doesn't?

    

  • @smith45acp : uhhh me?

  • @dashwerks Haha, I bow before you sir. I only drop a little bit on dummy rounds, but when it goes bang like it should I usually hit what I'm aiming for

  • @smith45acp shoot enough ammo, you will rid yourself with that flinch, i shoot around 400 45acp rounds a week in practice and competition.

  • @dashwerks I disagree. Dry fire enough and you will rid yourself of that flinch. Shooting a bunch of rounds just trains you to compensate for your bad trigger-control habits. The results are the same but one is much cheaper and faster.

  • @JofoTubin : True, but cheap reloads and practicing properly on the range is just way more fun. :D

  • @dashwerks Hhhmm.... at $16 per box cheap, or $9 per box reloads, plus time to reload it, that's $ 288-$512 per month on ammo. Wish I had your ammo budget. FYI,shooting more does NOT cure flinching.

  • @sbd45acp : here in the Philippines i only spend only around $15 per 100 rounds of already reloaded ammo, that's cheap.

    shooting improperly does not cure flinching, but train properly with live ammo will.

    always best to get a proper shooting coach.

  • @dashwerks Dry firing is a very effective( No/Low) cost alternative. Greater & faster improvement over live fire alone. Just my 2c

  • @sbd45acp : true, but hitting the range is just way more fun

  • @dashwerks Hitting the target... funner still... ; )

  • what holster is that, i could really use a low ride for my 226

  • @FuLLMetALJackET308

    BladeTech Drop and Offset Holster I guess

  • Dry fire practice might help with that trigger flinch.

    Keep it up!

  • Good practice. She is mashing the trigger, causing the gun to go down slightly, you can see it on the dummy rounds. Also, rap, rack. Not just rack. Pretty good though.

  • Training with snap caps = WIN! Very smart

  • my c9 has jammed less in 800 rounds as this glock did in one mag ROFL

  • @monkadelic13

    Your obviously not very educated on the subject of firearms, nor are the three people that disliked this video or had something negative to say. Those appear to be snap caps randomly loaded into a magazine. And might I retort by congratulating her for not flinching on the "dummy rounds". The sound of plinking plates would have added something to the video though as we could not see the target(s).

    The one thing I will criticize is she is not drawing from a concealed position.

  • @GotDaHoodOnLocYo Actually, she does flinch on the snap caps. Not nearly as badly as I flinch, though.

  • @monkadelic13 Those are placed in there to simulate a misfires... or did you not notice the Blaze Orange brass? "ROFL"

  • @rookiemcm77 yeah i realized that after i typed that a while back... my bad

  • good to see dummy rounds being used. too many never train for malfunctions

  • A woman with a gun in her hand. Now that is scarey.

  • Get better ammunition... it is jamming too much for a glock. =P

  • @monkey407 They are red snap caps or dummy rounds... that is to practice malfunctions clearance and to tell if you have a flinch. It's called a "ball and dummy drill"

  • @monkey407 yeah, it always seems to jam on those orange plastic powderless/primerless rounds for some reason. I'm pretty sure my Glocks shoot them anyway.

  • She's doing it wrong...

  • @sbd45acp - Listen to SBD45ACP. If for no other reason, simplified training and automatic muscle reflex could save your life. It should be automatic, not something where you decided if you should tap / rack or just rack.

    @prettypistolera - Well done. I was thinking to myself, "What kinda crap Wally world rounds are you shooting?!" until I read the info and found out it was a gamed mag :D Good reaction!

  • nice shooting and good clearance form!

  • The gun community should adopt a rule that only women can demonstrate firearms, and the prettier the better!

    It's always cute to watch chic's shoot. Nice job sweetie! Do I sound sexist? =)

    Thumbs up if you're politically incorrect and proud of it too!

  • Hot baby

  • @buddiiee Sorry, not true on all weapons.Shooters fail to seat mags often, especially during reloads and administrative loading.Holsters activate mag releases. Original GLOCK mags & M17s as are many European auto pistols, were specifically designed NOT to drop magazines free. MOST magazines will not "go flying" The drop free magazine and "speedloading" auto pistols is mostly an American thing. Proper Tap Rack Bang woks on all auto pistols and will clear 85% of commonly encountered FTF

  • Tap doesnt only necessarily mean tap the mag to properly seat. Glock, XD (safe action) or any semi-auto can be tapped on the rear of the slide if there is no click. Most likely the slide didn't go into battery so there is no click. The extractor didnt catch the round when sliding forward.

  • I'd be cleaning those cap caps passionately if they're being dumped outside.....if they're going back inside any gun of mine. :D Never looked into IDPA before.

  • She forgot to tap. This shows one of the "gaming" biases in IDPA. She knows it's a dummy round, so why tap first? But in a gunfight, the the tap could keep her unseated mag from falling out in the middle of the parking lot and her holding an empty gun. That would be a bad thing. Better to spend the extra tenth of a second and groove in a good habit IMHO.

  • @deepbsd Yep you are suppose to tap. She may have lost points for that.

  • @deepbsd Just like OWB holsters and "shoot me" utility vests. It's pretty gamey, but better than most.

  • @deepbsd if it would have cliked on the first round then yes a tap would have bin a must imho.but now it wasnt the first round that click = the mag must have bin properly seated since it was feeding. just trowing must ideas in the air no hatin.

  • Great to see a nother ladie.

  • Good use of dummy rounds. Notice how they show up the flinching that the shooter has unknowingly developed. More people should use them regularly. Nice video.

  • Well done.

  • Great job.

  • Dummy rounds thrown in randomly? Never seen that before but I'm going to start incorporating that jam simulator into some courses. Very cool.

  • I appears there is dummy rounds in your mag to make the gun malfunction great drill. However just racking the slide I don't understand??? I always go with TAP, RACK, BANG....not just a rack, bang. Just wondering

  • What the hell is she shooting that the failures look red when she ejects them?

  • @arkangel8419 That was too many bad rounds to be anything but reloads.

  • @Doccarson YEAH BUT LOOK WHEN SHE EJECTS THEM THE bad ones look like shotgun shells WTF is she shooting?

  • @Doccarson

    You're an idiot. Reloads are more reliable than factory crap. Those were snap caps, put in into the magazine as part of the drill.

    Get a clue.

  • @uraijit Listen up overly aggressive you tube commenter. I made a mistake. Though you shouldn't call people names, don't be an internet tough guy. By the way; reloads can be fucked up. Though I should have thought about snap caps. But like I said earlier, don't call people names online unless you;d be willing to back them up in person.

  • @Doccarson

    My "Credentials" are that I can recognize an orange snap cap coming out of the chamber. Also that I'm a hand-loader, and know that not a single one of my reloads has ever failed to fire; in stark contrast to my experience with factory ammo.

    Don't post retarded comments online, unless you're willing to learn what you're talking about...

  • @uraijit Look I'm willing to admit I made a mistake. Don't get super heated about it. The only reason I recently responded the way I did is because you came at me in an uncalled for manor. Haven't used snap caps so I didn't recognize them at first. Don't be an internet bully, it's not what we need around here.

  • @uraijit Plus I notice you you're saying this a week after @sexyparty154 divulged the answer...kinda makes me wonder your credentials. Plus I would never take reloads into an actual gunfight. None of the other guys on my old team would either.

  • @Doccarson

    Also, I wouldn't take reloads to an actual gunfight either, because I don't go looking for gunfights.

    My carry load are speer gold dots (high-dollar reliable factory ammo, not the kid of stuff you spit down the range at a competition).

    The reason for that, being that I don't want the liability of some idiot cop/DA trying to twist it into "premeditation", should I ever have the misfortune of having to use it... Nothing to do with my trust in loads; just because the world is screwy.

  • @uraijit Ok look. We got off to a bad start. You sound like you know what you're talking about and I do as well.  I'm just not around it as much as I used to be. Lets both be the men we obviously are and quit this squabbling.

  • @Doccarson

    Sounds good to me. I just get defensive when I see what I perceive to be FUD about handloads, which results in more misinformation being spread about it, and scaring people off from an awesome hobby.

    It seems like you were simply misinformed, and made an honest mistake, so there's really nothing more to it.

    Sorry I went off half-cocked.

  • @uraijit No worries. Actually looking to start doing reloads for the Larue OBR I'm picking up. Since I want to get the most out of it as I possibly can. Though I would need some input on doing larger lots so I don't have to worry about too much rezeroing. Though truthfully that platform shoots absurdly well so you can pump anything through it and it's performance is fantastic.

  • @Doccarson

    You don't have to worry too much about batch loading, so much as paying attention to load data.

    Once you get your load worked up, just load it the same every time, and you'll have more consistent results than you ever dreamed of with factory ammo. Write it down. Measure it the same every time, and it'll be the same load, every time. ;)

    When you're first working up a load, it's best to load up 10-15 rounds at a time, and see how they perform.

    Keeping good notes is the secret. ;)

  • @arkangel8419 They are called Snap Caps. They are plastic bullets placed randomly in the magazine to force the shooter to clear the malfunction while under stress

  • @SexyParty154 Thats IT! those werent failures that was part of the course\, Now it makes sense....thanks man

  • Is she married?

  • Ummm, how is it dangerous to eject a hang fire? From what I understand...if a pistol round goes off in the open (outside of a gun) it does not propel the bullet . It's about as dangerous as a firecracker since there is no chamber/barrel to concentrate the force of the expanding gas in a single direction. Now shooting a gun with a bullet stuck in the barrel is another story...very dangerous.

  • Did the RO say stop doing that? I wonder what that was about.

  • I too liked seeing the dummy rounds mixed into the magazine. Good jam/misfire-clear simulation.

  • that's interesting. the dummy rounds.

    cool idea.

  • She better get a new gun...

  • @aNINJApie

    LOL really?

    I believe the Lady did just fine.

    Keep Playing COD. aNINJAple.

  • @vxzvxc I was referring to the fact that it jammed. Didn't say she did bad.

  • You want to be more aggressive racking the slide on a jam, so you can clear it, regardless of type. (Unless you got a double feed, which is something you gotta train for.) I prefer to grasp the slide overhand and firmly punch forward with my firing hand, then regrasp.

    Now, one of the great things about snap caps is shooting form. Look carefully, and you will notice that you jerk the trigger and cause the barrel to dip when you fire, visible when dummy rounds were fired.

  • yeah ill flinch down almost every time if i have a high primer or no round in the chamber

  • Should tap the mag.

  • she flinched quite a bit when she hit the dummy rounds...I tend to do that too when I do the same drill

  • In 28 years of shooting tens of thousands of rounds, I've only seen one hangfire.

    bc

  • double hearing protection is always nice

  • The dummy rounds in the magazine is a great idea. I never thought of that before, thanks.

  • Good job-2 suggestions:

    1. After you draw your pistol-try to punch forward when you shoot it. I was observing your draw.

    2. To clear the "jam" on a Stage 1 malfunction-try to tap, rack & bang. I just saw you rack the slide when you encountered the orange dummy rounds.

  • There were dummy rounds in the magazine, the failures to fire were on purpose for testing.

  • cute

  • TWO FTFs. What is up?

  • Comment removed

  • It's a Glock thing, you wouldn't understand ;)

  • those are dummy rounds, this is a IDPA (defense pistol competition) and dummy rounds are used to simulate gun malfunction. so in real life, if your gun malfunctions, its a second nature.

  • mmmmm...chicks and guns

  • Also, I thought the shooter did just fine.

  • I am not waiting a half minute in a gun fight to clear a hang fire to play it safe. (Also while target shooting)... after firing countless thousands upon thousands of rounds through rifles and pistols of all sorts, I have never had a misfired round go off while clearing the firearm. I am a Vietnam combat Veteran with over 40 years of shooting under my belt.

  • M1garand has a good point. Whether you are using dummy rounds or not, we were trained to wait half a minute before clearing a dud in case it happens to he a hangfire. Ejecting a hangfire prematurely could result in injury to the shooter. So, if you are practicing clearing dummy rounds prematurely, you are conditioning yourself to do an unsafe act. No?

  • It would be more dangerous to condition yourself to wait 30 sec. to clear a malfunction if you ever were in that rare situation where your targets were firing back at you.

  • Pushing shots low -- with the first misfire, you see her shove the muzzle down in anticipation of the shot. Needs to fix grip and work on trigger control (IMHO).

  • Good catch. Also correct malfunction clearing is to slap mag, then rack slide.

  • You'd get better grip on the slide, if you'd reverse your hand and use a C-clamp with your palm against the left of the slide and 2 or 3 fingers on the right side. Looks like that'd slow you down enough to lose a position in IDPA

  • When working with dummy rds look at the rd that ejects make sure its not an empty case,because a real sqib mixed in when you expect a dummy can result in a blown barrel from bore obstruction.

  • Why are their misfeeds?

  • They are intentionally placed dummy rounds. It simulates a real world MF/FF and trains you to react.

  • That's actually pretty good thinking.

    Every auto I've ever been introduced to has had problems with misfeeds or other trouble.

    That's why I like bolt actions, pump actions, and lever actions; because, with those, it's a lot easier to correct a jam.

  • Ever try a factory stock 9mm Glock?

  • No, I've never fired a Glock before. I have since fired a 1911 colt, that didn't have any trouble. But I think if I were in a tight situation that I would still prefer the reliability of a revolver.

  • You must have had bad luck or shot 1911s with different ammo I shoot a lot and the only auto jam I ever had was a 1911 with bardan ammo I do take good care of my guns though

  • Try a glock.

  • True, but it goes TAP, rack(and roll it to the right), bang.

    She still was not doing the immeadiate acton drill right.

  • nice shoots,womans looks good with guns!!

  • Always good to see more women at the range.

    Nice video and thanks for sharing
