What kind of training are you doing?

Have you trained lately?  If so, what kind of training have you done?  What people tend to forget is that under stress, your body reverts back to your training.  With that said, many people carry for self defense.  That is great, but you still need to train.  You must train the correct way.  Training poorly will result, if in the event you need your firearm a poor outcome.  At the end of the day carrying a firearm is like having car insurance.  You hope never to need it, but if you do it is there.  However, unlike insurance, we NEED to train and continue to train.  Shooting is a very perishable skill.  

There are many good quality instructors out there.  There are also many instructors who are not quality or who are imposters.  What I recommend to all of my students is that you go through different instructors and take what you learn best form each instructor and put that into your tool box.  There are many different ways to accomplish the same mission.  If an Instructor tells you this is the ONLY way to do something or they have the best way, my advice is to excuse yourself from the class.
