First there is the typical shooter on this forum or in IDPA matches or other shooting or training venues whom train and practice and have an understanding of what that gun will do.

Then there is the more common shooter who has not practiced and has Hollywood's image of carrying a gun. While I support 2A I will tell you there are citizens who are legally carrying a gun that scare me to death. About a year ago a CHL holder shot a clerk in a gun fight and in his defense the bad guys locked him in the store but I can't imagine what that must feel like.

All I can do is continue to stress the importance of training, trust in God and hope I'm proven wrong.
There are over 25 states that have zero training requirements for renewals. Don't see any blood running in their streets. I'll choose freedom and trust the outcome.

Does it remove the requirement for range re-qualification as well as the classroom time?
