"soft" practice

Way to go....

The ideal scene for force on force training is to get a friend with a good quality airsoft pistol and have at it.....wear face protection....and a tee shirt....

Two things will become quickly clear. If you do a Matt Dillon fast draw at each other....stand and deliver....you will both be shot within a fraction of second of each other....almost every time....not good....number one rule of a gunfight is not to be shot....

If you jerk the gun and start blazing away as fast as you can while running away as fast as you can....you can often dodge the return fire....

You will find that the mind centers on the others gun and your fire will follow...you will get shot in the hands a lot...and a hit on the cuticle of the little finger REALLY hurts....after a bit of this fun you will look like you have chicken pox....

A sure test of action gun handling is to have at it with a group of teenagers who airsoft every weekend....

Have fun...
