No kidding, when I qualified I hadn't fired a pistol in over 15 years and shot a 233 or 93%. I was holding a perfect score until we moved out to the 15 yard mark. I would like to receive more training but most of it is cost prohibitive for me. I have seen some that seems to be more affordable but it leaves me wondering am I getting what I pay for?AndyC wrote:You're not the only one, believe me.NoJustHappyToSeeYou wrote:...I feel a concern that CHL standards could be higher.
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.
