Should people seek training if they are going to carry a handgun?

Define 'training".

x2.

Training can mean reading the owners manual of the gun, or youtubing a disassemble video, or reading a magazine article about carrying for self defense....etc.

Common sense guys. The ones that have it should use it.

So lets cut to the chase, what's the point of this thread? Because you're infringing on my time normally spent posting stupid pictures in threads I derail.

A formal classroom setting handgun course?

Please read the question carefully.

Should people seek training (not "Be required to") if they are going to carry a handgun for personal protection?

If you voted yes, please state why. If you voted no, please state why.

Note: I am not looking to turn this into a "Shall not infringe, yap, yap, yap" because if you read the question carefully, you would have noticed the question in it's perfection.

What does it apply to? Are you asking if i should seek training For personal reference and expierence or asking if it should be mandated by govt in order to carry... its not a perfect question.....

If I have to explain "training" in the context that it is suggested here, then your behind the curve. Common sense. If you have it, please use it.

Thanks.
