Most of our readers are qualifying on practical courses of fire where they're emptying half their magazine within 25 yards and 10 seconds so I think it makes good sense to go with a similar shooting style.

I do NOT advocate aiming once (acquiring a sight picture) and pulling the trigger twice. There are times when this is appropriate (the as mentioned scenarios), but more often than not you should acquire an acceptable sight picture before firing a second time (acceptable does not necessarily mean perfect sight picture). My method of practice gets people (and myself) used to that SA transition. I also do a lot of DAO shooting by decocking the hammer each time. If you can develop a grip for accurate DA shots, SA shots should be very easy! I wanted to clarify something here as the original interpretation may be confusing.
