Colorado sounds pretty solid.. Sounds like you learned allot in short order.. Nice!
I am learning a little about gun laws in this communist state. I have a few good sources in municipalities. The laws here aren't as crappy as I had suspected. Just not as good as allot of other states.. Your story gives me inspiration. I live in the hills and there are shooting clubs around, maybe I can find some quality training. I handle my glock quite well but like you said, under high stress, things change dramatically.. I could use some professional techniques.
