    It’s very time consuming to do a reload with a small magazine out of a loose pocket. Lots of digging and wasted time.
    I've fired many smaller guns and this is a thing with nearly all of them.

    A large, long mag can be pulled from a pocket but little mags need a belt-pouch solution.

    I'll also publicly admit that I don't carry a reload on my body. I keep a spare G17 mag plus medical and other essentials in the bag that goes to class with me. I only carry a G19 and a TQ on my body.

    Half the time, with one broken thumb, 7 out of 8 with a .22lr J-frame. This just makes me want to try it with my Bobcat .25. (8+1)

    But to be authentic relevant to this event we should be using a service caliber. .38 spl. included.

    Good video though.

    I’m usually carrying 18+1 so “I dOnT nEeD a ReLoAd” but I frequently carry the G43 when I’m being a lazy POS and need to bring more mags.

    Hell yes Euro.

    And yeah, a “pocket reload” is less than ideal for economy of motion. ( :
    The “fishing time” can be considerable.
    I frequently use a NeoMag when I’m carrying minimalist. Not ideal, but you know exactly where it is and which way the mags oriented.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    Props for using such a small pistol and making it work. I have a first gen Shield 9mm and though it's not overly difficult to shoot, changing mags and clearing malfunctions is a complete PIA. I've pretty much forced myself to carry a full size pistol, though it's often not easy or enjoyable.

    I wonder of you could use something like a "Ulticlip" on a low profile IWB magazine holster so it clips securely to the waistband on your shorts and doesn't move, but gets the mag out of your pocket.

    I like the neomag for that type of thing. I've used it in board shorts on vacation and gym shorts.
