[QUOTE="RickN, post: 3309184, member: 8854"] I have never shot a match, but I suck at the range. I have shot a person, both shots in the chest. The guy lived but only a few years then the police killed him. When I talked to a range instructor who was a combat vet he told me that in a high stress situation a lot of people never think about sight picture, training, etc. They point the gun like their finger and it is usually on target. Which is why a lot of police used to say the most dangerous thing was a scared woman with a gun. They just point and shoot. Usually at close range. That is why you read so many stories about the old lady that killed the guys that broke in. I am not saying training is not a huge help because it is. I am saying that shooting a match is far different than a real life shooting. [/QUOTE]
