Sounds really great to me! I do this kind of shooting, on a very beginner level, and I love it. I suck at it! But it's fun, and I feel somewhat better prepared should I ever find myself in a bad position with a pistol in my hand.

One of the most important things in life is to be ready before one needs to be ready and this is just another aspect. It never makes sense to me when people faily to prepare, or have the, "it'll all be ok," ethos rather than the prior preparation mindset.
I think we all have the "it'll all be OK" attitude about some things. We're very much going to have to rely on each other if shtf. I know nothing about law for instance at this point and it's not on my of-concern list but it probably should be. I'll at least know how to operate and very likely hit a target with a pistol if that becomes necessary. I find that comforting.
I'm working very hard on getting medicine (via homeopathy) well under my belt - when shtf, medical services will be very hard hit. The holster and gun I'll have to borrow.
More of us, myself included, could do with knowing more about laws.
Having medical skills is something so many people push aside in preference for other things but should not. In difficult situations a minor medical issue could spin out if control of not treated/addressed so a basic understanding at the very least is important.
As for legal aspects, it's probably the same as above I'd think. It's a minefield as well.
There are homeopathic remedies for these instances, a great many of them. Stop hemorrhaging, ameliorate excruciating pain, restart a heart kind of stuff. Minor issues do not spiral as often out of control if treated correctly.
The legal. This post has made me want to know at least a little more. I'll start with laws regarding homeopathy. At present, thankfully, there are very few.
Yep, it's definitely something we used to know more about (generally) and has become somewhat lost to most nowadays. A shame really. I guess it's all (or partly) thanks to big pharma and human greed and the desire to make everything easy and accessible. It's the same with other basic skills that kept us alive like hunting, cooking, building with our hands. I'm speaking generally here, but so many skills have been lost/discarded.
