Wilson is full of crap on this one. I think I'll go with a real gunfighter and follow what he does.
If I shoot to slide lock I reload and hit the slide release as I'm pushing the gun back on target. Old habit, but it works for me.
This is precisely what I do.
Under the stress of being shot at, I have never lost the fine motor skills that so many talk about. When I read such stuff, the first thing that comes to mind, is people who are poorly trained, and not handling stress well.
If you actually have to think about something as simple as a basic reload, then you have not been training hard enough or frequently enough.
Reloads should be at the level of unconscious competence.
As far as I am concerned "Tachypsychia effect" is an indicator of the poorly trained, or people who are in the wrong line of work.
