Training vs. Competition

A quick thought about the ongoing idea that competing in a firearms competition will get you killed in “the real world” because you’ll expect things to happen in a real gunfight like they do on in a match.
I don’t look up at the night sky expecting to see rows of aliens slowing descending towards the ground, I don’t get in my car and hear the theme to Peter Gunn playing in the background and I certainly don’t think that things will happen in the real world like they do in an IDPA match.
If you can’t figure out the difference between a game and the real world, you need a lot of help.

It certainly can’t hurt to be in competitions. In my opinion it would give you a better chance in a real situation.
