our instructor wouldn't let us keep the target... he also marked everyone as a minimum passing score on the test if you passed. All so it couldn't be held against you that you were a good shot.

I was told the qualifying target must be kept by the instructor along with the written test due to auditing by the state.

While nothing would surprise me in this day and age when it comes to lawsuits and litigation, I would love to hear from anyone who knows of a chl/ltc holder who shot someone in self defense and their expert marksmanship was used against them. I think this is just a modern day ol' wives tale.

Now, if we want to get down to it, would it be possible that the OP's qualification could be nullified if his instructor used the wrong target? He might want to look into it sooner rather than later. Nice shooting BTW.

Probably started by the same guy how started the rumor about not using reloads because you could get sued for making extra deadly bullets.

Just stating what I was told... Apparently there are many ranges that don't even allow target that resemble human form. They claim "optics" or "public relations" as reasoning. Hippies are crying that shooters are practicing "killing people".

Now if someone shoots an armed robber and is cleared of criminal charges, he/she can still be charged (improper term?) in civil court by the "victim's" long-lost, opportunistic, desperate-for-a-payday aunt. Without much of a case, I don't think the "practiced killing people" and "was just waiting for an opportunity" arguments are too farfetched.

Obviously not a lawyer. Again, just repeating what I took away from the class.

[Dillakilla]

I think you killed it!
Ot sure on above comments, but good shootin anyways

[Traildust]

Y'all had to actually shoot a target?

We just shot the sh*t over a cold beer and paid our money.

Actually if you are cleared of any wrongdoings in a self defense shooting there are civil immunities in Texas.

Of course they could try some other trumped up garbage but not for the actual shooting.

And if I ever went into a gun range and was told I couldn’t use a target like a B27 or whatnot, I’d walk right out. They don’t deserve my business for being pansies.
