One thing to keep in mind vis a vis training vs no training and combat mindset.
Back during the Vietnam war, the US military commissioned a study that showed that during combat something like one half the soldiers being fired upon did not even return fire.

Apparently, for some folks its not that easy to shoot at a human being, even if he is shooting at you.
I think we all probably know somebody who froze up during deer season. Its possible to freeze up during combat. Even if you are trained.
Something to ponder upon.
