We train hard. We get all the gear, run through drill after drill, and shoot way more ammo than we need to.
How much training do you do between your ears?
With forums being pervasive on the Web, we can skim through threads and find like-minded people that are outspoken with their opinions and we take it as fact. How much independent research do you do on your own to improve your shooting philosophy, training, and understanding of firearms?
