Ten shots (10) fired in a “Two Shot Exercise” 3 seconds allowed.

Not a problem at all for my semi-auto, but if you have an SA revolver do they give you a time out to throw some more rounds in the gun? Or are you just going to be out point-wise for those last 4 shots?
They usually have you load 6 (and shoot 3 rounds of two), then load 4 (and shoot the remaining 2 rounds of two)

If you have a 5-shot revolver, they do something different just for you, and make fun of you incessantly.

Moving targets?
The targets turn 90 degrees when time to fire -- or stop firing.
The drill is the same as the CHL qualification test. Done twice (SA and NSA), and must score 90% on each.

A guy did qualify (I assume) down the line from me with a SA .45 hogleg. It can be done.
They profess that you "should" shoot DA, as that's how you'd likely do it in a self-defense situation (to which my reply would be that I wouldn't be using a revolver for self-defense). Anyway, I had no problem shooting SA, either from the troopers, or time wise.
