I know it's been said here, but I'll say again 'cuz it's very true. If you take a good beginners class, one that has a bit of actual shooting and not simply a run-of-the-mill CCW class, you will get help on the fundamentals of drawing, grip, sight picture, trigger control and other things that will help you become not only more confident but a better handgunner as well.
At Front Sight, for example, after going to each of the 2 and the 4 day handgun classes I've seen men, women and 13 year old girls (yes, it's true) go from NEVER having shot a handgun to putting 2 in a thoracic size target at 7 yds from concealed in under 1.5 seconds and do it repeatedly as that is the standard by the end of the last day. (yes, one point five seconds) Of note, the 2-day class does not learn/practice drawing from CCW.
Take a class, take two. You will NOT be treated with any disrespect even if you are a beginner from what I've seen at any classes.
