Plenty of people seem willing to offer opinions on how best to use firearms but not all those opinions are worth considering. Talk to masters of any art and they will emphasize learning and perfecting fundamentals. While novices are distracted obsessing over minutia, masters focus on those fundamentals yielding the best return for superior results. Part of becoming highly skilled is learning where to focus effort and what is less important.
Peter Lessler offers a good insights on what's truly important in Shooter's Guide to Handgun Marksmanship, a great guide to solid practical pistol marksmanship and gunhandling that covers important fundamentals needed to handle a pistol well.
This book will give you what you need to at least get up to the author's skill level. If you follow this guide you will be good enough to perform competently in organized competition and be measurably better than most military, police and tactically trained gun bearers. Most importantly, it will develop fundamental skills more than sufficiently so that whatever task you intend to pursue, your base of ability will be well developed.
The importance of proper, initial focus is spelled out on page 150.
“Tactics Or Basics?
I have not wanted to delve into the 'tactical' aspects of fighting in this book, preferring, instead, to focus on pure marksmanship. This is the building block that comes before anything else, and it is what I see most missing when I observe others.”
The first and most important step in training is defining how to measure skill, assessing current skill and developing a plan for improvement. Once someone has received instruction, training requires this.
