Yes, but you can use that 5 months for training! Take care of yourself, get in good physical shape, as much as possible (don't overdo it). We have people here who train hard too. The bottom line is - those that do their homework get the best score on the test (match). I train as much as possible, but most of that is dryfire at home. It's easier to do that with a revolver, but not the same as live fire. I think you are doing it right. Here, there are very few police who can hit anything with a handgun. A few are very good, most are near the bottom of proficiency.

I hope your wife is doing better and recovering.
