When I took a carbine class, I expected to focus on rifle work but it ended up exposing issues in my pistol fundamentals too. Things like trigger control and consistency showed up across platforms. It reminded me that good and bad habits carry over no matter what you are shooting. Cross training makes those patterns impossible to ignore.
 
 You know, cross-training has a funny way of showing you things about yourself, things you might not have wanted to see. Take a carbine class, for instance; it'll quickly humble your pistol skills mostly because those sloppy habits you've got? They don't just stay in one place, they follow you everywhere.
 
Funny how the rifle doesn’t hide pistol flaws, it just drags them into the light even faster
 
 There's really nothing that shines a light on your bad habits faster than switching over to a completely different platform. I honestly thought I had things down solid, until I started seeing those exact same mistakes popping up somewhere else.
