Not so. But, I do refuse to embarrass myself in front of others... It hurt.
I plunged my hand into a bucket of ice water (well; more ice than water) for almost as long as I shot that day...

What really surprised me about myself was being able to keep up with the mag-fed semi-autos. Mostly Sigs and Glocks if I recall. All 9mm.
The Instructor put me at the end of the firing line. Dead last. Because he thought "Great. There's always One... A wheelgunner..."
He wanted to see how we did at 10-feet with form and accuracy and to evaluate each student. He stood behind and to the left of every participant.
The first volley on the firing line went sort of like this: "Pop...pop...pop...pop...pop...click...pop...pop...BANG!" I was the BANG!

Everyone turned and looked at me with my little snubbie .357... Guy to my left moved over a foot or two... away from me.

Best class I ever took...
