I avoid anything resembling a bad situation. So unless I’m involved in a Walmart mass shooting, or a home invasion, it’s not likely for me to be involved.
When I say I don’t like training, it’s not that I don’t like shooting and using my gun. I don’t like the training others say are required. The training geared only towards semi autos. The training that requires split second draws and shooting the badguy without thought. Shooting in self defense without thought is a horrible thing to practice. Because you might shoot the badguy as he surrenders, or accidentally shoot a non-combatant out of reflex. Just like wild Bill Hickok did with his deputy.
With no offense, that is just baloney if you seek out the qualified instructors. The entire spectrum of how and when to use a firearm is covered. Classes on revolver usage are offered. Deescalation, non firearm responses are taught. Situational awareness, legal aspects, etc. - all are available. Your post and arguments are reduced to the ridiculous with such a statement.
Also, I am a firm believer in empirical tests, square range groups are really trivial tests. Competitions and classes can show you if your chosen firearm and abilities are really optimal.
Living in fear - interesting, I'm of the opinion that many males won't train or take a class because they either feel that they are intrinsic great warriors or are afraid to test themselves in a 'manly' endeavor and be found to be a beginner. That's a fear. The emotional reaction is when one's view of self is challenged.
This is a somewhat free country. If you think that a single action revolver and no training is optimal for you, well it is your life. However, if you miss, it's your life. If you shoot an innocent expect the consequences.
