Rail I don't think he was trying to be a smart ass with you. I read it more like a "Yeah, right."
^This.
Evidently I need to flesh out my posts a bit. When I said, "SBR or no point" I was speaking in terms of practicality. Rifle caliber pistols are good for stuff like this:
They can be a ton of fun (pictured is an 8" AKM I built back before commercial pistol receivers were available; to do it legally you had to roll your own) but isn't the top of practicality.
Here's a pic of me demonstrating forward sling tension from 06' /w a shitty Keltec
Wow, check out the magwell grabbing! Boy, times sure have changed
Yes, adding a sling and providing forward tension can help with stability but it's nowhere near the control of even an unslung stocked longarm. That's what I meant with my second comment.
I 100% absolutely guarantee that if you tested drills (such as a Viking Tactics 2x2x2 or an el' Presidente) yourself using a shot clock between the two, they would be worlds apart in terms of speed and accuracy. This is simple and you can test it yourself. Don't always listen to the dude on the internet because the shot clock
cannot lie (the shooter can sandbag, of course but then they're only lying to themselves [invariably to justify purchases]).
What forward sling tension does is allow it to be better than with no sling at all. It's not magic, it's a stop gap that makes the pistol marginally more useful.
Raildriver- Going full retard isn't always the best recommendation. I'd encourage thicker skin in the future.
