You're not the only one, believe me.

Bear in mind, though, that - as has been mentioned before - the shooting standards are on-par with that required of police officers (with the noted exception of a timed reload). Now ain't that scary?

If I were in charge, the standards would be a lot higher - not impossible by any manner of means, but not something that someone brand-new to shooting would be able to pass easily.

That said, the CHL-course does a pretty good job for being a starting point; unfortunately a lot of folks seem to believe that once they've passed, they don't have to lift a finger again.

No matter if we're talking about CHL, DL, voting, religion, or parenting,
knowledge is better than ignorance.

So he had already fumbled around his pockets, retrieved the Smith and Wesson lock-key, inserted, gave a twist....wrong direction the first time, gave another twist.... hoped it was the correct direction that time... left his firearm concealed.

Pushed the man.
