I had an old Chief Warrant Officer-4 in the Marine Corps that used to have a bunch of dummy rounds. He would have us give a mag full of rounds to the person next to us. They would load the dummy round somewhere in the mag. That meant you had to deal with a malfunction, and also got a really good idea of if you were flinching when you were shooting... It was Brilliant. Could be a great addition to a shooting competition, like USPSA, etc...
how do you practice something that is supposed to unexpectedly happen? this makes no sense. kinda defeats the purpose when "you know" that a "malfunction" is gonna happen
The same way you train shooting a firearm. The same way you train drawing a firearm. Do you think that in self defense scenarios the person defending their self knows beforehand that they will need to draw and fire at somebody?

have your range buddy load your mags and have them work in a random dummy round or have your wife load a mag the day before and put it in your go bag with the rest of the mags
If you are able to read the malfunction and know it's not mag related, then it's not necessary. A click on the first or second round in a mag is probably mag related. A click in the middle of the mag is probably just ammo related.
I like to tape my hands up and have a buddy induce malfunctions while squirting oil on my gun... to simulate blood of course. Lol no, it happens plenty with bulk covid ammo.

Gah damn a CWO4 my ass only seen a CWO2
My brother in law loves to sneak snap caps into my mags when im not looking so yes i do get malfunction training and its always random 😂
Wow your brother in law is a moron
That sounds evil, lol
Yeah dude have your buddies load dummy rounds in your mags. Works good, we would load spent rounds sometimes to cause some nasty jams. Works good
I have plenty of videos with malfunctions lol… but it’s mainly caused by me… for not changing mag springs after they are worn out …..
I have a can of some really old shitty ammo that I run when I go to the flat range
thats why everyone needs a shitty gun or two, teach you to clear malfunctions endlessly
Wait till they happen..
I have several boxes of shitty aluminum case for practice clearing

Not necessarily. If you're still pushing for time standard it makes a big difference. Buy a timer
Have someone else put randomly a snap cap (or dummy rounds) in the mag to practice your tap-racks
have your range buddy load your mags and have them work in a random dummy round or have your wife load a mag the day before and put it in your go bag with the rest of the mags
What stance is that? Waaaay tooo far out.
Is the tap worth the extra time in your opinion?
