Oooh. I think I see a shiney ninja logo on the guy's head.
But. Practice reloading enough you should be able to do it without looking down. Like the whole reholstering your side arm thing. You can see who's had *some* experience by who looks down when they reholster vs. not.
There's also another method where you bring the pistol's magwell in to your peripheral vision and bang a fresh mag in while keeping your eyes downrange. But. What do I know. The guy in the picture is apparently a ninja.
*ETA:* Always remember too, that the instructors, experienced as they are, are only teaching *A* way, not *the* way. What works for one, may not work for another. Keep that in mind.
