I don’t rotate carry guns.
[Blah blah blah]
Anyway that’s what works for me what are your thoughts?
Almost everyone has the ability to become "proficient" with multiple gun platforms (SAO, DAO, SA/DA, safe action, Walther mag paddle versus Walther M2 mag button, etc). The thing is, "proficient" isn't a scale with a min or max. Instead, it's dynamic, and very, very few people will ever reach their "performance cap" the way a professional athlete (or Jerry Miculek) can.
Not everyone has the physical ability to perform at the level of JM. There are people who, even if they were personally trained by JM, and devoted time every single day for a decade, might never reach the proficiency that JM has reached with a revolver. Their body just isn't up to the task, because we're all made differently. In contrast, there are some other people who, with the proper time investment and ideal coaching, could theoretically surpass JM's ability in terms of speed and accuracy. It's the same reason professional athletics is a recurring thing in certain professional athlete families: there's a genetic/talent factor to it that only some people are born with (and some aren't); but even if it is present, that talent/ability requires a lot of work and time investment before it will blossom.
So you can see that we're dealing with a dynamic system here. Everyone has their own individual top-end (JM is probably much closer to his than you are to yours), but we don't have a way to measure that top end. So the everyman instead resorts to using a vague term ("proficient," which basically means "good enough for me"), and that's also different for everyone.
So you might be "proficient" (good enough) with any manual of arms, and switching them up based on your mood when you get out of bed isn't a problem, but are you really
as good as you can be? No... for an overwhelming majority of people, the answer is no, and that's really not debatable. Are you a professional shooter who devotes x number of hours, several days out of every week - with a skilled coach committed to your improvement? If not, you're not as good as you could be. You may be "good enough," but the fact is that if you change NOTHING except make a commitment to one CC gun (as opposed to having a rotation) - you
will get better with it than you are now.
Does that mean you should do it? Personal call. Some people carry just for the fun of it - they have a carry rotation.
When someone says "rotation" to me they mean they have several guns of about the same size that they rotate carrying with similar clothes in similar conditions. In other words clothes or activities are not a determination.
Same here. I wouldn't say a guy who rotates between a government 1911 and a SIG P238 (same MoA, different sizes) based on Winter versus Summer temperatures has a rotation. When I say rotation, I'm referring to a guy who chooses between a SIG P226 one day, a government 1911 the next day, and a Glock 21 on weekends.
