Oooh. I could tell ya *blood*curdling stories....

I don't doubt it -- but I'd note that close combat self defense
fire is rather different from target shooting. The choice to be
armed for defense rather than or in addition to sport should be an
informed choice with understanding of what it means to fire in such
a sit.

Most of the stories are not along those lines though.

Like the cop who decided to wander out on the range to inspect
his target. While everyone else was still shooting on the civilian
side (no cease fire had been called).

Like the cop who forgot one of his handguns, just left it sitting
on the bench when he drove home.

Etc.

All the more reason that I agree 100% with, and live my life in
accordance with all the principles you have set forth in this
thread.
