My bother has several capable firearms for home defense and personal protection,
but he won't train with them! Never has, even when ammo was cheap and plentiful.
He won't practice with his guns. He shoots them maybe one range session every five years, and only because somebody else urges him to --like me or like one of his teenage or adult children.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW OF good arguments that are logical and sound and preferably backed by studies involving scientifically valid data showing that people who train and using firearms are more effective at using those firearms so much more effective that it is likely to make a difference.
(Keep in mind That the difference between shooting a 2 inch group and a 4 inch group at self-defense distances doesn't matter worth a crap. He is not a competitive shooter and he doesn't care about accumulating points on a bull's-eye. We're only talking about a practical difference that could mean you win a gun fight because you're trained and you would've lost and gotten yourself killed if you haven't trained ahead of time.)
Are there any articles and gun magazines law-enforcement or security related websites that have the data I can show him?
