For information, at least one police department has tried to adopt a different standard of shooting to incapacitate:

Michael Smerconish discussed this:
I've run across this idea myself. I recall once mentioning when I took the TX CHL test (child's play) a guy said I shot too well and should miss some as I would be asked in a self-defense incident why I didn't shoot the opponent in a less lethal spot. He said he knew this because he was a 'sniper'. I thought this was ridiculous until some police officers I know said they heard the same thing and it was even mentioned in their training.
Mas' points are excellent. Another reason for the gun carrier to look training and/or read up if you can't take a class.
