then would it just be a double-tap to each person?
Back on topic please.

Purely as a drill, different instructors teach this differently. A Hammer is two shots as quick as possible, with a sight picture only for the first shot. COM is Center of Mass of the target.

A box drill in this situation as taught by a well known instructor is; Hammer to COM on #1 followed by a Hammer to COM on #2, then a head shot on #2 followed by a head shot on #1. Because the figure you make when doing this is a big C or rectangle, it is referred to as a box drill.

Some instructors refer to a box drill as one shot to COM to #1 then one shot to COM to #2 then a head shot on #2 followed by a head shot on #1. Or the same drill, all COM shots.

As always, these are just drills. A real situation is a lot more complex.

@koolminx - LOL. You don't need to practice this. Chances are excellent that you won't ever need these skills. You'll probably never need to run a fire extinguisher either.
