Realistically, yes I agree. The only time most private citizens will ever fire a handgun is within 7-10 yards. In NC if you fire anything beyond 7 yards you can no longer plea self defense as you have the option if running.
Both of my parents work for the Sheriffs department and qualifying for law enforcement in NC takes place at 25 yards which is why we shoot there.
