Most are 4 seconds to draw and fire 2 shots... if you can break leather and get on-target fast, that really gives you time. The first round is always gonna be double-action, so really take your time and squeeze... don't jerk.

I know of one person that got expert and had never touched a pistol.

No, SAMT is a seperate day and they don't even give you your score because of how inaccurate it is.

It would depend on the malfunction I guess... most of the instructors will just let you fire an extra round during the next stage to make it up.
