My training covers this point too. If you have time to align your sights you take two shots, then a quick look at your assailant. If your target is down, a fast glance to the right and left sides of you. After this is completed you look back at your assailant and check him out for two seconds, then scan the area for any remaining enemies. If the area is clear it is time for a tactical reload. Reload your pistol then look around. If area is still safe, reholster your weapon.
If you're happy believing that nonsense,I'm happy for you.
