my experience as an instructor both with special forces and with the Sheriff office, dang few people can shoot really well with a handgun. After a zillion rounds the Seal guys can shoot and I mean shoot but too many police officers don't put the time in. They shoot enough to qualify each year to stay on the job but not enough for combat. That actually is a real problem. In a situation like just happened a cop needs to be able to drop the bad guy without hitting an innocent .. My feeling, don't carry if you can't really shoot. The FBI guys can shoot, CIA can shoot all of special forces but you are right, it is like anything, it is all about training. many people won't do it.
