Tactical Training Techniques: One-Handed Magazine Reload with Alien Gear Holsters
This video, featuring Jason Beighley of Skeleton Key Tactical, a retired Tier 1 Army operator, demonstrates the best techniques for performing a one-handed magazine reload on a pistol. The instruction emphasizes treating the exercise as if in a combat environment, maintaining focus on the target throughout the reload process. The optimal method involves performing an administrative reload with the pistol holstered, dropping the empty magazine, inserting a fresh one, then re-engaging the slide and presenting the firearm. Variations like magazine retention for competition and less effective methods such as using the knees are also discussed. The video promotes Alien Gear Holsters for magazine carriers and concealed carry gear.
