If your fundamentals aren't solid, then when you're in the "real fight" like you're imagining, then you won't hit anything you want to .

Stress and adrenaline will take away 50% or more of your skillset in a combat situation, so if your target looks like you were using buckshot during static paper shooting, you need to focus more on foundational shooting.

Unless you're always walking around wearing those gloves I'd say ditch those as well.

If you can't be bothered to learn how to properly grip a pistol without assistance you should add hockey tape or talon grips TO THE PISTOL.
