TRB solves the most problems for the most people. So long as whoever teaches it includes TS' invert move to clear the chamber. It does not require fine motor skills, it can be programmed as a reflex, it is very efficient, and it puts an effective/proven technique that can be taught quickly in the hands of as many people as are willing to learn it. Efficiency is extremely important when teaching large numbers of people. It is equally important when being shot at. One technique that can be applied to 90+ % of the malfunctions that might be encountered is a lot better than having five different techniques that together cover everything and wasting the time deciding which one to use. If you have a malfunction that can't be solved with TRB maybe it's time to initiate the "E" part of your PACE Plan and run away (i.e. look for cover). BTW - If the gun's empty, it's not a malfunction, it's time to reload. Stress does horrible things to people's brains. Slow down, quit panicking, realize the slide is locked back, and reload (another drill the pundits complicate beyond reason). My .02 - Peregrino
