[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1328522, member: 1132"] On the first part, my level of due diligence is this: Know your limitations. If you cannot hit an assailant beyond 3 feet, then your range is three feet. If you can hit an assailant at 15 yards, then your range is 15 yards. If you shoot outside your known skill level, then you are a detriment to everything beyond your target. Many CCW instructors are the only person a CCW permit applicant will ever see. I'd expect them to encourage further training, as the SDA class is NOT shooting or self defense instruction. It is only a familiarization fire course. A pistol version of Appleseed would be a great idea. I just don't think it will reach very far beyond the core shooting community. To expect it to have a significant impact on the 100K SDA permit holders would be overly optimistic. As for the prosecutions, yes & no. For those who actually imperil their fellow citizens, yes. For those who inadvertently violate a SDA rule that does not actually endanger anyone, then no. [/QUOTE]
