I worked with The Wackenhut Corporation 30 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G4S_Secure_Solutions
I worked for the custom protection division out of Los Angeles. I worked a gig in Pottstown PA and entertained the idea of joining their Nuclear protection division.
They provided ALL...
I have been using ‘smart carry’. I carry a subcompact 45. I’m not worried about how fast I can draw. I have been carrying for 40+ years and worked in law enforcement for half my life.
I can count on one hand the number of times I really needed a gun. I’ve always got plenty of firepower...
With ammo prices what they are. That's all you can afford to do.
If they can't take away our guns, they can make ammo impossible to afford. Just another taking
Obviously there are times when inflicting pain is preferential to taking life. A hopper of 150 rounds mixed with paintball/pepperball/rubber ball could probably deter a group of angry protesters without the body count.
Remember this is less lethal, not non lethal. A headshot with any of these...
With all the Peaceful protests and the resulting Looting and burned buildings, Pun intended.
I have looked at some of the 68 caliber alternatives. Why? Because I carry a 45 and while use of deadly force is clearly not authorized. Some of the 68 caliber paintball guns can fire a series of...
I wish I could know what my schedule was going to be that far out. Aside from iron sight M-16's in the military, I haven't shot but a handful of rounds at 100 yards.
What is the progression of classes for long distance shooting, and are the class dates posted online anyplace?
Two examples; Arizona no longer has a permit or training requirement for open or concealed carry. Any non felon can carry without a permit. Arizona still has a permit available if the resident wishes to carry in reciprocal states.
Alaska has no permit, period. Any non felon can open or...
I agree. If it's a right, they can't license, permit ,or extort money.
In this country and the reciprocity laws, different states don't honor Georgia's permit due to lack of training requirement. That lack of training affects the number of states that honor my georgia permit.
I have many...
Let’s ask the question this way. What would you think would be a best practice in the middle of a firefight?
Train like you fight, and fight like you train.
There was a case involving the death of 2 ventura country deputy sheriffs (California) who in the middle of a firefight took the time to...
I understand that the taliban trains with them. They also have a special course for rocket propelled grenades.
They do have a religious prerequisite and they don’t train locally, but you can find them on the internet.
Who says they have to qualify to do anything other than keep it pointed downrange and let it go bang a couple times without getting anybody (including themselves) hurt.
Some people don't want or need to have all that know-how. I gave my daughter 2 revolvers. She has gone down to the...
:pop2:I have been carrying for most of my adult life. I worked in law enforcement for the first half. I have never had to draw my weapon on or off duty. I deep cover carry a 45acp, even in shorts and a tucked in t-shirt I will pass every test short of a pat down or a metal detector. I don't...
If you can’t draw your weapon with either hand from any position you may find yourself in, I would submit that your carry location is suboptimal
He may be right about less than optimal. Many people fantasize about needing the ability to draw and return fire. I don't, I am no longer a LEO and...
My daughter is now up to the place where she needs a beyond the basics class. She can shoot but hasn't had any shoot don't shoot or tactical/fire fight training.
Remove them? In the Air Force one of the firing exercises we did with the -16 was use the entire groove of the handle as a V of the rear sight to pick up the entire front sight as the front post sight for close 25 yard targets. It Works pretty good.
