I was really hoping to keep up on this blog more than I have been. Anyway, I’ve been spending my time trying to get an interview for a part-time job and practicing defensive pistol tactics at home 
One of the best things a human can do is learn how to properly, effectively, and, most importantly, safely handle a firearm.
Since there is always room for improvement, I am constantly looking for something to work on (not that it’s hard for me to find something). Recently, I’ve been concerned with my speed reloading technique. I always seem to do something to screw it up. Anyway, while looking around the web for some tips, I found NUKE1.net. He has a few videos that may be useful to somebody. While there may be more professional training videos out there, I found this one helpful. He has the exact rig I use, except I have the Springfield Armory XD chambered in .40 S&W rather than .45 ACP.
I’ve been practicing this technique, and I’m already way faster and much more consistent.

Just a few pictures from a night at the Midland County Sportsman’s Club. I’m shooting a Springfield XD-40 service model (4 inch) in all photos, except the last, where I’m shooting two XD-40s. Click on the photo to view the full-size image.
Check out that flying brass!
The slide is still reciprocating in this one.

Firearm safety is the number one thing to consider when purchasing a personal firearm. A complete understanding of the four basic Conditions of Carry will help compliment common sense and attention to detail. These conditions can be applied to all firearms and vary based on the type of firearm you are dealing with. I will stay on the topic of handguns.

Owning a firearm comes with an enormous amount of responsibility and obligation. An obligation to society, your children, your family, and even yourself. An obligation to handle the firearm in a safe and responsible manner at all times. This is especially important with the extremely biased, negative media coverage. Studies show that most firearm accidents are caused by human error, often called an “accidental discharge”, but in reality should be labeled as negligent discharge.
