If you tuck the buttstock under your arm pit, with barrel parallel to the ground or at a slight upward angle, while still holding the pistol grip with your right hand you’ll get added stability. Your left hand does the mag change work. You’ll have an overall much faster mag change with a bit of practice.

Thanks. I'll keep practicing. This was the first time out with the kit. And that was my second kick at the drill with live fire. All feed back is appreciated.

 if you practice the mag change with snap caps, standing in front of the tv, fish tank, whatever you like standing in front of, you can still do the change, transition, and one trigger pull without blowing through ammo. Reps is key to be fluid. Starting uncomfortably slow and building speed. 

Then when you do a live drill it’ll be that much more satisfying

Thanks homie. I've been meaning to get some snap caps. Good for practicing recoil management and failure to fire drills too.
