That is not true either. Once you reach a 175 you pass. The score matters not. Pass/Fail. How could a "low score" be used against anyone? Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
I got mine in the first bunch in 1996 that was good for two years. When I renewed in 1998 we were told they no longer put the actual scores on your paperwork, just pass/fail. The instructor said it was because of the potential of someone shooting a low score being used against them in court. |

It was explained as a lack of proficiency. However, you want to explain that. You know how LTC instructors are.  And for what would you sue? "You were a bad shot and got me in the gut rather than between the eyes"? |

I think my first was a 248 back in 06 or thereabouts. My requal was 250.

I shot a 248 counting only hits outside of the 10 ring or however they do it. Guy next to me shot a 250 but missed his target 75% of the time and the instructor never counted shots except outside of the bull. Even after I pulled the instructor aside and said he missed the majority of the time and was not anywhere close, he passed him anyway. The guy shooting the quals was a coworker and after I saw him shoot, I told him he was not allowed to carry at work until he proved he could hit what he was shooting at because I did not want to get shot on account of his stupidity.
Somehow he came to work a few weeks later with a picture of him and the same gun he shot a buck with at 45yds.

Instructor said he only counted to 175 and put pass on it. I took my full size xd40. There was a woman that had never shot and one that had to borrow a pistol because the new one she bought the day before wouldn't cycle. One of them scared the hell out of me. I'm pretty sure she missed from the closest distance. One of them wound up getting to go back and try again without everyone.

I started teaching in 2003, and except for 2013 to 2016 I taught good sized nearly every weekend. The stories I could tell.... |

I did the same when I had large classes. Once I counted up to 175 I stopped counting. State law gives people three attempts to pass. I started teaching in 2003, and except for 2013 to 2016 I taught good sized nearly every weekend. The stories I could tell.... |

I wish this would change. Three attempts is two too many. Blood in the streets and all that, though

In a perfect world, there wouldn't be a single attempt since we shouldn't have to pass a test for our Constitutional rights to apply. Blood in the streets and all that, though Quote HistoryQuoted:

Perfect score.
After it was over the instructor shook my hand. Probably because the 4 other peeps were scary in the way they handled their pistols. All passed though. edit to add: took it with my FDE G17 with stippled grip. |

Because it was Revo/SA at the time I shot SA (Beretta 96).
I really wanted to shoot it with my S&W 629. Its actually quite accurate, and I am THAT GUY. |

I went to school for my security instructor certification in South Carolina in 1997. Back then it was five days for revolver and shotgun (level II) and then three days for semi auto (level III), so Mon-Fri and Mon-Wed for those of us doing both). We were all going to be getting into town on Sunday so the instructor (A LT with the Florence PD) said we could come by the range to help with a CHL class he was teaching (so we could get range experience besides with each other). You only had to qualify with one handgun, but one guy insisted in doing four and of course the last one was a HUGE Dan Wesson 44mag

First time was 248 back about ten years or so ago. Requal was 250 with a G23.
My first class had almost 30 people in it, of which 10 had never handled a pistol, and of those 10, three still had the ty-wrap on the gun case that they bought the day before. It was great.

Shot a perfect score today. The whole tropical storm thing made it a little harder than it should have been.
