🎯 In a hurry? Here’s the one thing to know. PCSL scores you on PPS (Points Per Second) = total points ÷ time — which means half your score is literally the clock. A more expensive pistol won’t raise your PPS, but shaving fractions of a second off your draw, transitions, and reloads will — and the only way to measure that is a shot timer. The most useful one is free: the AirsoftShotTimer app records your splits and par times from your phone, so you can train at home with airsoft or dry fire before you ever spend $130+ on hardware.
