    This is the issue - will society be willing to pay the $$$ to train police officers sufficiently and continually so they are expert in handling firearms? Shoot 50 rounds a day before going on duty? A week? A quarter? Which do you think will make you a better shot when SHTF????

    I think not. The public wants perfection but is not willing to pay for it.

      Shooting more often will not solve anything. Teaching people how to properly handle and respect their tools is far more important.
