I know that all to well
Got out of practice for a short time. The resulting #'s were ugly to say the least!

It is imperative that all persons who carry are confident in their ability to safely handle, fire, and maintain their weapon. There is no excuse for not doing so.
Agreed 100%
Needs to well above and beyond the almost worthless CCP offerings out there.

One of the big problems in the community I work in, and I'm certain that it happens all around the country, is gun owners leaving their firearm in their unattended, and often unlocked vehicle, and having them stolen. These are usually gun owners who don't have a CCP and therefore don't take responsibility for their firearm ownership.
Unfortunately, we've had that same thing happen to countless LEO's nationwide.

If you carry...get to the range and practice once in awhile. It sounds like everyone here does that.
Excellent advise!
