[QUOTE="Zaphod Beeblebrox, post: 2880481, member: 4606"] You might try some competition shooting. Look for a local USPSSA/IDP or steel challenge match. You generally don't have to be a member of anything and they're cheaper than a class. I'm not saying they're a substitute for a good class but you WILL learn a great deal of things. I certainly did; things like: 1. I'm not as good a shot while I'm running around and wheezing. Standing still is easier. 2. My $1k 1911 was a jam-o-matic in my hands while under stress. 3. You can never have too many magazines. 4. I can't shoot weak handed to save my life. 5. If I'm on a timer, hostages better have a last will and testament prepared. However, it's a TON of fun, and you get to practice hot reloads, shooting while moving and shooting from behind and around barriers. You know, things that get you kicked off of most ranges! [/QUOTE]
