SGT (Join to see) - This is a valuable step forward. But, it is one thing to visit a static range . . . and something else again to be intellectually, physically, and emotionally prepared to shoot accurately at a moving human target, to quickly move to new cover, and to cope emotionally with all of the harsh consequences of taking a life . . . even when you are threatened and even in self defense. This is something that is under appreciated in self defense courses and under appreciated on the static range . . . that leads to overconfidence, unnecessary risk taking, and unexpected emotional fallout. Even worse most civilian ranges have banned human head and torso targets . . . requiring women students to shoot abstract targets . . . making the leap from practice targets to self defense and threat removal even harder to manage. Warmest Regards, Sandy :)

1LT Sandy Annala, Thank you for your answer. I know full well about the feeling of taking a life. I try my best not to think of it that way, but it still comes down to killing another person.

It's tough to argue with a woman, especially my wife, especially when she's holding a gun. At 4'11" and 110 pounds, she becomes quite intimidating. Without it, she's prey

You're so funny at times CPT Jack Durish. Mines the same size and I do what she tells me to do. She used to be married to a cop and she knows the front and rear end of a pistol very well. Lol
