Practice practice practice. your gear should act like it is .. (OnlyFans)

Practice practice practice. your gear should act like it is apart of you because of how well you know your gear and how it feels on your body, and in your hands. When you get new gear whether it’s body armor, a new PDW, red dot, etc, how do you know how it works with you unless you’ve put reps among reps in down range with the same gear. 

Take this for example, I was doing a photo shoot for a buddy’s car company, and wanted to try out my new plate carrier in the meantime . It was a rather expensive plate carrier, and before I got new attachments for it, I wanted to see how it felt to move in, how tight it was. Etc. Come to find out this plate carrier is TIGHT as hell on me, especially since I’m gaining weight! 
I didn’t think it was an issue still I started running in it, and my lungs can only expand half the normal capacity!  Talk about a major issue!
Luckily I got it exchanged for a different size later on, but I became one with the gear, was comfortable with the material, the elasticity of the mag pouches resistance, how it felt when shouldering my weapon etc.

Take this with everything you do in life. You’ve gotta put reps in with anything you want if you want to be good at it, and get comfortable with it.
That’s the only way to success.
