An increased knowledge, skill, and understanding in shooting, defense, and legal aspects as such. Some enjoy the knowledge, others perfect their skills, and some wish to do both in order to teach. I personally love knowledge, I know more than I can apply as I am without enough practice, this refers to many things. The more I know, I can put to practice and understand it. Eventually, I can teach those close to me. Increasing skill and understanding sets you to a higher standard in yourself. The more skill, the more discipline. The more you understand discipline, the more you can apply it to all else.

Myself aside, there are those who's job requires training in these skills. Others are training people in these skills, and must understand the skills themselves.
