During our building entry training I took a shot that the gunny seemed rather surprised I took. They had just drilled into our heads " Never!!! Never!!! Never, give up your weapon!!!" The scenario. I enter the room, bad guy has woman pulled in close and by the throat pointing his weapon at me. Screaming over and over for me to drop my weapon. I took the shot, the hole in his forehead said, I win bad guy lost. Would I take that same shot if it were my wife?? ??

By the way, did your paper targets talk or did you actually kill some guy in training? Were they volunteers? |

That shot I took was 30 years ago. We qualified every quarter in night shoots, combat shoots, and the generic qualification shoots. Basically every month we had a shooting qual due. It's been a bout 10 years since I shot IDPA.
You're making me think I need to get back to the range a little more frequently. If I have to take that shot again but it's my wife or grandson I damn well better not miss. |

I've had the wife for over 30 years, gotten used to her.
The truth is I was very confident in my shooting skills back then. I'm still confident in my basic shooting skills, but lack the proficiency I used to have. You know what perishable skills are, and accuracy wanes with time. |
