Royal Range USA yup I know I take training with Bob regularly, but that boils down to about 1 time a month. This can’t be considered practice. I wondered if once you demonstrated proficiency, then maybe you get a smiley face sticker or something and there might be a time when you could do some paired “meaning safety partner” hot range time. I know it’s tough but otherwise you really can’t practice and get proficient and it just becomes theoretical.
Also a real situation u shouldn't have shot first until u identified the perp with your flashlight. Also in a real gun fight u won't have on ear protection. It's a lot louder and can throw u off a little more.
