Who says 'Reloading'?

In a gun fight, and now needs to cut it out?

Do folks doing race-gun stuff actually do that?  Unless there is something going on there I don't know about CCW folks usually train, and compete, singly, most of the time. 

So that leaves cops and soldiers.  People at a shootout with other people on their side.  And, yes, that seems to be the target audience for that site.  Police.

So, let me understand...  You, police officer, shoot 12+ shots at the bad guys.  You partner has shot or is shooting 12+ rounds at the bad guy, and shouting 'Reloading!' gives away too much tactically?  Or, you, solo cop, trained to shout it, do it automatically as part of your conditioning when all by your lonesome.

I may be off base, but this sounds like the fear the bad guy CHICOMS in Korea would hear your Garand clip PING.  With all that shooting, it's a wonder you'd hear anything.  My gut says this is a mythical event.

But it certainly wouldn't hurt not shouting it.  Just like it wouldn't have hurt if Garand clips were silent.  Just in case and all.  Not to ingrain any conditioned response of that nature into your regimen.  Like cops that look around for the brass can to dump their revolver's spent casings, just like they had to do in training.
