You might even search the INTERNET for videos of shooting instruction demos. This is just for example, If you want to learn quick presentation of the weapon from a holster, you would not dream of practicing with a loaded gun. You would draw and dry fire until you master the technique, then load the gun. Never under estimate the value of dry fire. I would advise you to always make certain your weapon is unloaded before beginning a practice session.
