training

Curious of everyone's opinion. Do you feel a CCW class should provide solid range training, or that it is simply a certification and any additional training is on the licensee? Train them or simply make sure they can hit the target without hurting themselves or someone else? Had this...

So I finally got my concealed pistol I wanted and am wondering what are the methods everyone uses to train with? Are there any exercises I should be concentrating on more than others or should I just go put lead down the range and hope for the best if I ever need it.

I would guess that the vast majority of us on this site so far are firearms enthusiasts and enjoy exercising our 2nd Amendment right. I'd go far as to say that a large majority of us carry on a regular basis. Given those two assumptions.......how many of us have continued to train beyond our...
