Dryfire Pants?

[Chris Rhines]

So at the Fredericksburg USPSA match this morning, I was chatting with a friend about dryfire practice. Offhand, I asked him, "So, do you have dryfire pants?"

What in the world are dryfire pants, you ask? Let me explain.

I do dryfire practice usually twice a day, half an hour in the morning, half an hour after I get home from work. To make this a little easier, I keep an old pair of cargo pants in with my shooting gear, with a spare Velcro underbelt threaded through the loops. When I get up in the morning, I can throw on the pants, buckle on my gunbelt, and go through my dryfire routine, all without a lot of fuss.

So, if you do a lot of dryfire, do you have a set of dryfire pants? Do you use any other time-saving tricks you use when practicing at home?

No special pants but a special room and procedure.

I go nto my shop/office/off limits to grand kids room, with the CC de jour, Unload, check twice, and practice.

No option for tactithong?

 

[Chris Rhines]

The tactithong won't support a holster...

I confess: I have dry-fire pants. They're a large set of shorts that I can quickly slip on over whatever I'm wearing. The belt and holster are usually already on them so it's convenient.

Chris: You are not alone...

I’ve seen indigent individuals in that attire with cardboard signs proclaiming I’ll dry fire for food.

I wear whatever clothes and gear I am likely to be wearing at the next match. In the winter that will be true minus the ski gear base layer.

Wish I had a timesaving trick for putting it on, but alas I don't.

It's always better to dryfire through your pants. Wetfiring is messy and unpleasant. I stay away from spicy foods to minimized any incidents.

Chris you are such a gamer...

I just grab the AR and prone out, or other position I want to work on, in the living room and dry fire.

 

[Hoser]

Thats just hard core dude...

I keep my targets set up, mags and dummy rounds out. I often DF when the wife and kids are gone, that way I have no interruptions. I set a goal of 30 minutes a day and I stick to it pretty well, except during the winter when I take a lot of time off to work on gear and reloading.
