 Sure, there are incidents like the woman last summer who shot dead the guy attacking her husband using her one day old pistol, but we'd have to call that a fortuitous fluke. Start with that same woman asleep at 2am and the outcome is less clear.  Your odds, with years of experience, practice and 'muscle memory' are much better.

But damn, what a thing to devote your life to!
"I'm going to practice three times a week so in case someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night, I can slap my hand right on my gun, jump up into combat stance and blow the intruder away!"
Sheesh. 99.999% chance it's just a waste of time, plus a paranoid mindset.
