Dry fire and playing dress up in you house may seem ghey, but it's very often encouraged, especially in the Real Steel world where your training level may determine if you live or die..LOL

They say train like you fight. So getting all your shit on and just drawing a few times can be a real eye opener. I don't know how many times I have seen guys try to get out the old secondary under a little pressure and COMPLETELY fuck it up (myself included). Just recently I had to move a whole bunch of shit around on my main rig (and get some of it off on a subload) because what looked good just didn't work. I couldn't draw/holster my pistol without hooking on my med kit, and having to look away from the X to get it in. The ONLY way I figured that out was DOING IT.

Add a little adrenaline, and you hands turn into flippers. Your fingers just don't work. So, if you are POSITIVE you can get that nice new 1911 out of that brand new Safariland 6004 you bought last week without any practice at all, more power to you.

But I bet there is pownage in your future..
