Glad you passed! How many shots to you have to shoot and how many can you miss befor you Flunk?

Thank You!

We shot 48 rounds total. I believe it was 70% had to be on target, so that's 34 rounds. You could miss with 14 and still pass, 15 would be a flunk. The target is huge though, so don't sweat it.

I took the Advanced Issues in Carry class last week. Rick Newstrom taught it and did a good job. I was particularly impressed with the amount of research he has done regarding TN law. He is also a big guy that carries himself in laid back way. Very personable. I think I left the class feeling I had a little clearer picture regarding the use of deadly force but unfortuntaly we all can think of situtions where there is not clear cut black and white answer.

For those wondering about Kent he (Rick) advises that Kent has left. Rick is now teaching all the classes expect the Basic Handgun which is taught by one of the gunsmiths. When I took it about a year ago Bob Delmore taught it and did a good job.

Did you at any time have the thought "Man I could just throw these at the target and still pass"?

In my class we had an older very sweet granny like lady who passed the class. Looked like she was shooting a 12 gauge. When the teacher said you just have to hit the target that is all she did.
