    one of the key bits of training that the wider shooting community misses out on is keep that bloody trigger finger pointing down the frame or stock of the weapon/firearm until you have made the conshious decision to fire. this final safety is in pratice in military and police throughout the world. while the cogs are turning in your brain theres milseconds of extra thinking going on. you will never see aline of sas stg who ever in an entry drill with there fingers on the trigger cause there woudnt be any left by now.
    I guess we will never know how many lives may have been saved by more training.
    Theres an interesting study done by the us army and fbi on uds on ranges and the training that was changed and the affects. key areas to address was fingers off triggers , weapons always pointing in safe direction, unload drills and checks. cheers
