As soon as I can, I'm thinking of making my own video recreating one that I saw a bit ago on YouTube. A sheriff timed himself firing, reloading, transitioning targets...all with "low capacity" magazines.

He then had someone with a some knowledge but little experience (maybe a typical self defense user that doesn't practice as often as they should) repeat the exercise.

You can guess the conclusions...the sheriff had no issues getting more shots off and faster (simulating being the bad guy). The most time consuming thing he did was transition targets. Of course, the "defender" in the situation was hampered quite a bit by the mag swaps.

We need new and constant evidence like this to point out that lower capacity magazines don't really affect a competent assailant...but drastically affect semi-competent defenders.

This is the video:
