Last month I bought a new gun.
One of the reasons I bought this gun was for the short grip,
I figured it would be easer to conceal.
It came with 2 magazines, one 6 round and one 7 round.
I carry with the 6 round magazine, which is flush with the bottom of the grip and use the 7 round, which extents below the grip, as my back up.

Practicing trains you to do something without having to think, a reaction. Like finding the clutch, your foot just goes there when you start to shift, you don’t have to think.

The 7 round magazine change the way the gun feels,
you get a full 3 finger grip instead of just 2.

In a for real situation, if you had to reload, would the change in grip
of the 7 round magazine make a difference?
