However he made it a point to recruit his fellow officers to come shoot with us, and over several months a fair number of them came -- once. The most common reason cited for them not coming back was that they were embarrased because the 'civilians' were shooting so much better than they were.

Thanx,

Love it!!! CATS

Planning on it--I may need some shooting for stress relief after another week on the new job!!

Hi, everyone. I completed my renewal class last Thursday evening (I wasn't paying attention and let my CHL expire!) and I'm really not sure about the instructor. I took the class at Jefferson County Sheriff's Office in Beaumont, and the instructor stated that he wasn't sure that arming citizens was the best idea...everyone knows that police officers practice more than citizens, and they miss 86% of their shots, so how can we mere civilians expect to do any good? This didn't appear to be the time for a philosophical discussion, so I didn't ask why he was teaching, but I'm really kinda curious. Have any of you had similar experiences? How did you handle it? Thanks for any feedback!
