The gun handling in my CHL class was downright scary...INCLUDING THE INSTRUCTOR!

She was showing the class some different guns, including the Sig she was carrying in a fanny pack. Cleared the gun to show it, the when done reloaded and didn't de-cock. Stuffed it back in the pack and 'bout gave me a heart attack. I really should've walked out...

On the firing line, there were many with SA's that clearly did not know how to operate them. Applicants should be denied testing if they can't operate their weapon safely.

A sad state of affairs.

The "federal government" doesn't pay for it, WE DO. But illegal immigration is a whole different subject...

Regarding CHL training, this issue brings up one of my major complaints about how the law is written. I think the distinction bewtween SA and NSA pushes people away from revolvers, a much safer option for the great majority of CHL applicants.

Lets face it, most people out there carrying guns are not "gun people" and would be MUCH safer with a good double-action revolver.
