You should put at least several hundred rounds through it, preferably with a knowledgable instructor, before considering carrying a weapon everyday. And remember that shooting is a perishable skill. If it's not used often enough, you will lose it....... Which is probably why I couldn't hit the ducks worth a frick this season! Lol.

Well said Matt. A great way to learn to really shoot, handle, and be safe with your weapon is USPSA competiton. Thats a great way to go from being able to shoot to knowing how to shoot. I used to shoot matches in Orange Texas. Its a nice club and not a bad drive for those around the LC area. Its a great way to burn lots of ammo and learn how to really shoot your gun. More experienced guys are always willing to give pointers to less experienced shooters.. 2 ALPHA
