Re: Nervous about my proficiency test next week

I have had a number of people show up to classes lacking a bit in experience and shooting small guns. Tiny semi/snubby usually equals failure on a first attempt. I always hand them a PPQ and let them practice a bit and then watch them ace the exam. I recently started letting them take it on my mk25; I’ve probably “sold” a few of them.

I am in the “it’s the Indian not the arrow” camp to a point; however tiny carry pieces with heavier triggers are REALLY difficult to make consistent hits with at distance. Maybe the range has a rental larger semi or revolver? If so try to have a practice session first.

I have had to “work” with students before and I’ve yet to have anyone not pass proficiency and I take personal protection VERY seriously and do NOT fudge results. I want students to be proud of their target and feel confident in their ability.
