While the juice probably isn't worth the squeeze for most people, I disagree that a 1 second draw is unattainable by most. I totally agree that it is not important, but the thread is about what is fast for a draw.Sub 2 second draw is attainable for anyone that gets some training and practices, it's really not that fast when you observe it in a vid. 1 second first shot on target from concealment is FAST and unattainable by most.
To your point, BBIs stated in a class I attended that what he heard in almost all cases from people involved in self-defense situations was "it didn't happen like I thought it would".. Situational awareness is probably the best defense but it's not easy to stay at Defcon 2 every moment you are in public.
