Realizing that the FTA class involves shooting, reloading, and shooting again, I got a couple speedloaders since the 686 isn't cut for moon clips. I wonder if my choice may not make me appear as smooth as I actually am due to the clumsier reload compared to a semi-auto's smooth clip insertion. Does this factor in during training and is speed in reloading as important as safety and overall gun handling skill?

Welcome.

You are one of my favorite comics...

NOTHING is as important as SAFETY and gun handling skills... I can't remember the specs on q'ing in OC, so i can't tell you how many rounds.

If you haven't signed up already, i would suggest you check out Firearms Training for your CCW instruction - you WILL NOT be sorry. Also, your chance at CCW will increase.
