re: #68 Rightwingconspirator

Okay got stuff prepped for dinner. SteelPh I see your in agreement with Obdi but do you have any questions / challenges top my points of your own? In for a penny in for a pound, more the merrier etc.

Tell you what Obdi on training requirements— That seriously deserves a page all its own. I have trained a bunch of people and saw with my own eyes how long it took them to pick up the skills involved.

It really doesn’t require anything that complicated to talk about. If someone wants to have a gun for self-defense, they should be competent in the use f it for self defense. This is something that’s trainable, but also, testable. If someone can’t perform in a test, which is a much more controlled environment, they’re not going to be able to perform at 2:00 AM.

Now with all due respect to a point of view that will want to set that bar differently than I would I have a serious disadvantage. I have no means to demonstrate or prove what I or my teachers would advocate actually brings to the skill set of a student in tactical shooting. Kind of a dead end for me despite doing the actual work for a long time. Perhaps you can understand that is a little frustrating.

No clue what you mean by this. Why do you have a disadvantage? A disadvantage in what? What dead end are you talking about? Sincerely, I just have no clue what you mean by any of this.
