What techniques do you want to see? What pieces of information helped you develop your reload?
Any tips for reloading when dumping the magazine with the support hand?
Anything with shot calling or shooting while moving?
Videos about efficient movement in uspsa please
Entries and Exits; Transitions; Stage planning would all be very good topics for newer shooters.

Oooooor best way to transition from iron sights to red dot optic on a pistol. Hints and learning curves that might be anticipated when changing
Do not dry fire with live ammo..... best indoor advice ever. 😂😂
I truthfully cannot thank you enough! Your videos are incredibly instructive, even for those of us that have been playing the game for a while. I appreciate your including drills in each one of your videos.
Great video as always. I painted a white line on the inside bottom of the mag well. That helps me focusing on the mag well when I insert the mag.
PLEASE keep doing these. They are GREAT! Best ever!
25 Minutes of Very Good Video Tutorial very well Explained, Thank you In these times you have to be well trained, you never know what happens around us
Aiming the index finger at the pinky knuckle, as well as not dropping the pistol to insert the mag. After a few reps I can tell it's superior to the way I usually reload.
I've found that especially in single stack guns, it's crucial for me to make damn sure I see the magwell as I go to insert the mag. I've fumbled countless reloads just moving a bit faster than I could see.
Excellent content as always 👍
What a great series!!! Can’t thank you enough for the great content!! I know that what goes in to making this content takes away valuable time you could be spending on your own pursuit of improvement. I hope you know that it definitely is making a difference for me and I’m sure everyone else that consumes it!! So thank you!!
All I'm saying is that you are the expert I look towards to teach me how to stick it in.

Good stuff man. I actually take big steps when reloading. I never really have problems with hand speed though so it works. My biggest reload gains came after I started keeping the muzzle pointed at the target AMAP. Just rolling over a little. More consistent at top speed now by far.
Your hand speed is absurd
Been watching The Humble Marksman for a long time but for whatever reason, just now encountering the full Shoot Like a Boss series. Great stuff and just what I needed at this point in my journey.
At my range, you cannot allow the muzzle to point above the berm, so you have to pay careful attention to keeping the muzzle flat. Great video!
I shot a match at a club with this rule for the first time this month, I was terrified of screwing up and getting kicked out lol
Every range I've ever been to. Was wondering as well.
Shots over the berm can get ranges closed.
Great video!
Very helpful, thanks a lot.
Great video, thank you
Thank you! I learned something. 🙂
at the intro I first thought "why is his pistol floating?" lol
World class, indeed.
Good stuff.
Always good info
Finger tip to pinky best tip I have herd, however it all gets much easier with an aftermarket magwell to suck up you mag replacement/reload.
All good.
That range looks so familiar.. Kind of looks like a gun club here in DFW. But I doubt it lol
one thing I learned from my instructor was to flick your mag towards your left side because once the mag is out, the magwell is already there readily in position to insert a mag. Another thing is from Paul Harrell, and that is eyes on the target whilst doing a reload, but you have to practice a lot, once you nail it and it becomes second nature you are all set.
Both are not good advice - not to sound bossy- but one is useless frenetic motion and the other isn’t used in competition or mil/Leo shooting anymore
@@TheHumbleMarksman so far both advice has helped me, but there is always room for learning and improvement.
The mag flicking is slower. Just let gravity do it's thing. You'll take tenths off your reloads. Plus your moving reloads will be much easier.
Eyes on the target stuff is okay, sorta, in self defense... Maybe. Looking down at the magwell ensures a fast and clean reload. Even in a self defense situation you aren't blind to the threat. They just go from your focus to your periphery to your focus again during the reload.
David,
As a new IDPA shooter I find your videos extremely helpful. Thank you very much.
Do you have a suggestion as to what belt and mag holders I should use?
LM Michigan
For IDPA - they don't matter that much - I did a video on the Ghost Civilian rig - they're pretty affordable. There's pretty basic criteria for IDPA gear. I do quite like my modified 360 pouches from them (used electrical tape) - can unmount gear from the belt super easy and they're pretty fast to draw from and stand a bit off the belt to allow for ye olde love handle.
I want to see the thing I hate the worst, unloaded table start with all mags on the table. I’m not gonna start my carry optics competing until after Area 1, so I am working on production mainly so that belt has 5 pouches and I almost always go with 4 given up here table starts are usually on the higher round count stages. Would love to see you cover that taking the low-cap divisions in mind.
"Do not dryfire with live amunition " lol. Wouldn't that be live fire ? 🔥it
In your house there are no safe directions
A question on technique. I notice most your reloads are before the magazine is empty - you are great at higher mathematics as I can never keep count. For those of us who rely on the low round indicator of Slide Locking back, after the reload is Over the Top any better than Slide Release? SR would seem much more efficient, but there are a mass of Gun Range GooRoos who insist that slide Release destroys the gun…. Your thoughts?
That's nonsense - mostly. Modern guns are designed for it to function that way. The slide is usually harder steel than the stamped piece of the slide release - if anything - it destroys slide releases - not slides. Through living in ATL I was friends with a Glock engineer - he told me point blank the way the gun was designed was for slide release.
On a 1911 where the slide release is tool steel and as hard as the slide - there is validity there - but most modern service guns are designed for the slide release to release the slide.
A year later, and only 8k views on a fantastic series. WTF google.
great stuff as always, thank you. a couple of questions: some recommend holding the pistol a bit higher (mag well at eye level) so you can keep the target in your vision. another, at which point in the reload does the trigger finger goes on the trigger, as soon as the gun is pointing at the target? what are the differences with the out of battery reload? thank you
Keeping an eye on the target from a practical shooting context does nothing for you - if your bio mechanics are better keeping the magwell higher - go for it. The closer to shooting position you can keep it the more efficient it will be. Finger goes back onto trigger when reacquiring sight on target. Emergency reload is roughly the same but after dumping mag strong hand thumb goes to slide release and waits for locking mag in.
👍🏻👍🏻
Any tips for those with small hands and need to adjust grip to engage the mag release?
Adjust your grip to hit the mag release then immediately start to rebuild - or use your support hand to hit the button
These are not the reloads I wanted to see, but likely the reloads I needed to see. I like a 124gr plated on top of 4.5gr Universal, makes 132 power factor according to GRT - you?
My minor loads are Titegroup action pistol and prima V
informative and well put together video. However, I only do the HumbleMarksman reload so this was not helpful.
Good video! Why do you turn your muzzle so far off the target? Looks like about 75 degrees of muzzle movement.
To orient the magwell to point at the source of ammunition
@@TheHumbleMarksman Look at 5:20 and the orientation of your mag. It is pointing forwards. By twisting the mag to 75 degrees aren’t you introducing inefficiency? Also, with the new USPSA rule changes, will you be moving your mags further forwards?
May I ask, concerning magazine plus two extensions for a primary concealed carry mag. Will, say a plus two taran tactical have better reliability if downloaded by one? I want to carry my plus extension on my g43 but I want better liability and if that means downloading by one then I’m 100% fine with that
So it's how much upward pressure the magazine is putting on the slide. If your stated capacity with the base pad is 19+1 or whatever and you can slam the magazine into the magwell and it locks in and hand cycling the slide doesn't feel too bad - shooting it doesn't lead to any feeding issues - you may be OK going to stated capacity. If it's too tight for slide to cycle appropriately then download.
This may vary from mag extension and spring to the next.
@@TheHumbleMarksman thanks!
The best advice was getting my finger out of the way and shoving it in. Really improved my marriage!
🤣
Do you have any SP's codes?
I do not.
I tried suppressor height iron sights with my red dot... I found that it distracted me. I presume you like it?
With black sights I don’t even notice them
@TheHumbleMarksman 👍
Any tips for lefty with left side mag release only?
Try to roll in your finger and press it with the joint. Avoid extended mag releases.
There are lots of lefties who even go back to left side mag release cause they got so used to it.
Turn the gun in your hand a bit and hit the mag release with your shooting index finger. Reload and while putting your support hand back on the gun rotate it back to that good shooting grip.
If your hands are flexible enough you can pull this off without rotating the gun in hand.
Slide stop vs sling shot? Any preference?
Lots of race guns don't lock the slide back.
If slide locks back - slide lock
@@TheHumbleMarksman love your content, it helps a ton! Thank you!
Why do competition shooters take their eyes off target to reload?
Because it’s the fastest way to reload and no viable defensive trainers will tell you to look at the target anymore
@@TheHumbleMarksman I would like to see that put to a test. EYES STAY ON TARGET VS. TAKE EYES OFF TARGET RELOADS WHILE MOVING
Robert Vokel does it better!😁
