Yep ..... AGREE 100% !
...trying to educate a lot of new concealed weapons who seem to schedule their perception of threat levels......they generate excuses for not carrying, just taking the trash to the alley, to hot to carry today, don’t need it where we are going today etc ...
Carry if your allowed by law and consider carrying even if unconstitutional BS law prevents such. Life of family and friends is to important.
Obtain the best training possible, join IDPA and compete in their matches if for nothing more than the training and practical experience through participation and observation as well as the bi-weekly practice under as close to real world conditions one can get for almost free !!
Carry your handguns people... legal or not, its only gonna get worse before it gets better IMO.
IDPA is an excellent choice to sharpen skills, then keep them sharp. From my years with them, I learned to make my own scenarios out in the desert for the family... target stands, IDPA targets, reactive targets, clays, timer, tape, staple gun and steel knock downs. Lots of range ammo.
Shoot fast, shoot straight. Shoot safe.
Practice, practice, practice.
Carry.
Glock rocks.
