I would like to know from the people who carry a handgun on their person, either as a profession or as an armed citizen (or both), how much "dry" practice you engage in. This includes one or any of the following: the draw, the presentation, the trigger squeeze, reloads or anything else you deem important.

You can't have too much practice. I try for every day.

I'm doing something once a day. Whether it be presentation, dry fire, etc...

I put at least once a week, but in reality I do 3-4 times a week when competing at least once when working a 12 hour day.

Weather and finances permitting twice a month or so. The range is free, but gas to get there isn't!
i find that pistolcraft doesnt seem to deteriorate as quickly as riflecraft, so i dont spend much time w/ a handgun.
In a self defense situation the actual act of overcoming the hesitancy to kill is more important. once you have that down you have the upper edge by a long shot.

I haven't fired a weapon in many years. I do routinely practice drawing a 1911 in condition one (something I don't know if I'll ever be comfortable with). I also practice clearing failures-to-feed in a BHP.
My main HD weapon is an 870, and I should be concentrating on learning how to clear a shotgun jam, now that I think about it.
