I have been shooting and carrying defensively for most of 30 years since roughly age 10. I strongly believe that once you reach a certain level of proficiency and competence, combat pistolcraft is NOT as perishable of a skill as many are led to believe. You don't have to fire 500 rds a week on a DEVGRU qualification range to be far ahead of the curve for a defensive encounter.
Point one is the big killer for me.

The second point is also largely true IMHO. I took my CCW course having not shot a handgun in nearly two years. I pretty much toasted the whole class using a Steyr M9. Could I learn to shoot better, yeah sure, but see point one above.
