Pass from seven yards with 22/45 (reused target). Almost didn't pass the weak hand portion... got lucky. This drill makes 7 yards feel like a long way off. LOL

Pass (if you count hits that break the line) with Colt Python from 5 yards. I cheated a little and shot the weak hand portion single action, but the rest was DA.
Pass from 3 yards with S&W Model 10 2", all DA.
Fail from 5 yards with Glock 41. Got overconfident for last weak hand shot and jerked it badly LOL

Actually kinda proud of this one: Gen 1 LCP (almost no sights), 3 yards, pass. (reused .22 target)

This one sucked because I felt like I was doing really well and the pistol is surprisingly accurate. Fail from 3 yards with Shield 9mm. First shot strong hand jerked low. It felt like an anomaly because the trigger press and sight alignment felt no different from previous shots, but nevertheless, a fail is a fail.

Pass from 3 yards with German SIG P220
Pass from 3 yards with brand-new Glock 30, Gen 4. Hits a bit high for me but surprisingly shootable.

Very impressive with the LCP!
I've never shot mine strong hand only and definitely not weak hand only.

Fail from 3 yards with Kel-Tec PF-9. Weak hand got me again
Provisional pass (if shots that break the line count) with Colt SAA .45, all shots cocked and fired one handed EXCEPT #5 which is traditionally fired strong hand only. I fired that dot with both hands to change it up. This one was pretty difficult as it's a new OEM SAA and the trigger is pretty bad. 4.75-5.75 lbs and pretty gritty and creepy. Plus the eagle head grips tear my hand up. First world problems.

Not quite the same as you guys are doing but after a bunch a shooting today I took one of the targets from the "Prove It" thread and used it as it was intended.
Started at top right and worked counter clockwise. Last 7 shots of the day shot with Canik TP9SA at 25ft slow fire.
I think I could definitely get into this shooting smaller targets at close range with some drills thrown in. Still need to order of the OP's targets but today was fun.

Pass from 5 yards with Colt 1911 Combat Commander/Advantage Arms .22 conversion upper
Fail from 5 yards with Rock Island GI 1911 .45... front sight is rounded front to rear and painted the exact shade of orange as the dots. That's my excuse.

Fail from 10 yards with Ruger 22/45. I need to put the VQ trigger and sear back in it and see if it helps. Strong hand only and weak hand only got me.

I took a class two weeks ago that used this early in the class. It became obvious very quickly that I shoot one of my pistols, which are nearly identical, much better than I shoot the other.
Unrelated to the topic but pertinent to my comment, I had to switch pistols because my plunger tube came unstaked from the frame of a Springfield 1911.

Good stuff. I enjoy the dot drill quite a bit, it's also really helped me get better with the DA pull on my 229.

Pass from 5 yards with P225. This thing is growing on me.
Haven't shot a dot torture since the last one above. Target is re-used so ignore the .22 holes.

Fail from 5 yards with Glock 30.4. Threw one high right with my weak hand. Dadgummit.

I got one of those ITarget Pro laser deals and have found the dot torture is an ideal dry fire practice to use it for, with some modifications.

That's some solid weak hand shooting.
That's the stage that usually gets me. That and going too fast on the doubles.

Cool, but for the meaning of draw, as in draw from the holster? I can't do that at my local range, one they don't allow you to holster, two gun must be facing forward at all times even when uncasing and casing. The ONLY other thing they allow is walking it with barrel toward the sky, mag out, bolt open.
