Had one for a couple decades along with an M1 and M4. Very cool but didn't fill a need. Pump action was sorta useless and didn't work as nice as an 870. Really only good for less lethal and what...
It all depends on your state laws and the agency. In CA, at larger agencies you have to do all the same training (which makes sense) but you can pretty much choose your own assignment depending on...
I had the same issue with my oversized Benelli M4 bolt handle coming out when doing lots of vigorous select slug drills. I went to a thinner titanium one and it still happened occasionally. I then...
All 3 of my MOS Glocks are slightly off between RDS and irons. One falls on one side of the rear sight one and one on the other. RDS and irons are sighted independently and then I use the offset to...
There are other "Large" agencies in the LA area depending on your definition of large...
Maybe an agency is just adding a 9mm AR version to it's list of approved rifles?
A pistol mag sharing...
Hmmm... I never found a need to press any weight or hot kydex at all against the grip area when molding. When I do it, the grip of of the gun sticks out the side of the press. Hot Kydex hits cold...
I have molded dozens of Kydex holsters on my various G21, 30, 17s, 19s, 26 and 43x. At least 2 or 3 holsters per gun if not more, in a homemade press made out of wood and foam padding, with 200+ lbs...
The clip on this Olight is actually pretty impressive. I was worried at first because the attachment looked spindly, but it orients the light in one direction, drops nice and deep, is usable both...
I lived my on and off duty flashlight life for a couple decades by the list above. I still have my original 6P& 6Z bought when they first came out, as well as fancy bored out versions with 18650's...
I make my own Kydex so I can accommodate any light/mag combo. It's been decades now and I can unholster/reholster from concealment without thinking.
Around the house or when forced to be...
I have owned many many dozens of pretty much every "Tactical" light since my first SureFire 6P back in 1991. My current favorite EDC is the Olight Warrior Mini 3. Intuitive med/high...
I have a Big Dot[emoji769] on my offside belt carry G26 on my plainclothes duty rig. It is great for one handed support side shooting. Just get the big white dot more or less on the target at...
I couldn't wait for an airsoft LCP to show up so got a .380 laser cartridge from Amazon and used some stuff around my messy garage.

I like where this is going and after perusing the 3 Fonzie's thread I remember what I used to do back when we worked in small 2-3 person teams as opposed to big 10-15 groups now.
We would...
Melt the ends of the Paracord a bit to create a wedge end for the compressed butt to hold against.
Thanks!

Paracord with aluminum butt connectors for a perfectly sized, low profile, strong connection. I have had all kinds of Kydex and steel belt loops and this works the cleanest and allows just enough...
I tried all kinds of mag pouches and finally couldn't take it anymore and started making my own. Went thru several iterations and have been running versions of this for a few years.
0.08 Kydex....
Cops need more realistic shooting training.
Cops need to continuously assess while shooting in today's climate.
Cops could run into a situation requiring excess ammunition.
All can be true...
Uhhh. No. Keep it to yourself and pay attention to your surroundings. Especially in CA.
It would be a 0.00001% situation where you would need to draw when there are uniformed LE around. You...
I thought I was the only one who started noticing that as a trend. Although my continued yelling at the TV screen is likely even less useful...
My dept videos seem to be less bad in this regard...
We have quals running day and night so if you go at night it's a low light qual where you can use your WML or night sights and ambient light. Due to my schedule I would say that 90% of my quals have...
I have been using Paracord for years with no issues. I make my own IWB holsters to get the lowest profile possible and tried Paracord loops on a lark and they worked fine. The Kydex breaks before...
I hot glued a Vortex Venom with top load battery to my SIRT to simulate my Glock MOS/RMR06's. It was still great for dry fire practice but as others have mentioned it got boring seeing a red dot...
I have used a shoe stretcher for decades to fix narrow shoes. I actually prefer shoes stretched to my liking over too wide wide shoes.
