I felt like this was an underlying issue in the Carbine vs handgun thread located here:
https://pistol-forum.com/showthread....ne-vs-handgun& But it's also a larger issue unto itself and I thought warranted its own discussion. Just trying to stimulate discussion with a blast of questions...
Confidence. How important is it? Why? How do you build it? How do you build it for people who are not going to amass experience because it is not their job to do so? Is there anything you avoid, to keep from fracturing confidence? Is there anything you avoid, to keep from having an unfounded confidence (false bravado)?
