Great thread with some serious nuggets of wisdom. I saw this video from Tristar recently and thought some good (and relevant) points were made.

Again, maybe I'm off base here, but I have a fair bit of experience dealing with taxi driver/drunk passenger "disputes" and see the most common scenarios as sort of falling on a spectrum, with a...

I'm probably missing something here, but what is the hypothetical scenario where a less-lethal tool would be deployed on a rear-seated passenger while you are situated in the driver's seat of the...

Seems like "deterrence" can turn into "disarmed" pretty quick. I handled a case not too long ago where a store clerk kept a 12 gauge and G21 behind the counter out in the open, supposedly as a...

I taught guitar professionally for a few years in a prior life before going into LE. I've been out of the game for awhile now but I'll throw some ideas out there.

If I were a new student starting...

Exactly, these days you've got a keep a low profile and stick to the straightforward jobs like, oh I don't know... maybe driving a prisoner transport van or something?

Hopefully the actual police "interview" in full (not just the segments shown here) consistented of more than ridiculously leading and yes/no questions...

I have no experience with the P-01, but did end up going from a G19 to a P2000 V2 primarily for an additional margin of safety with AIWB. I've found that the P2000, particularly with the large...

My agency issues 5.11 khakis and polos embroidered with agency logo for callback use, but has the expectation that detectives (non-UC) wear a shirt and tie for day-to-day operations (sport...

Unfortunate case, the deputy was placed in a very tough spot. Although the circumstances ended up being vastly different, I wouldn't be surprised if this particular deputy was aware of the Trooper...

I got rid of M&P9 after realizing that it was the enemy of my skill development.

What is faster for you with the M&P vs. the Glock? Splits primarily, or other manipulations as well?

My US-made Gen 4 G19 (test fire date 06/28/2013) has had only about 400 rounds through it so far, but doesn't seem to be suffering from the same brass-in-face ejection issues my Gen 4 G19 with test...

Yeah the situation with fixed blades in NC is unfortunate. However, something as simple as a Uniball pen can be clipped upside down inside a belt and be deployed pretty quickly. Obviously not as...

If a tac team decided on utilizing a "special" platform, but one with a reputation for durability and long service life (P30, HK45, USP), it might make sense if the team is full-time or has a very...

As someone who is pretty deeply invested in the M&P platform, I find this issue extremely frustrating. The aftermarket options are either unavailable (Apex/Bar-Sto), expensive/waitlisted (G&R/storm...

Interesting, this does seem like an area of specialized training that is overlooked (LEO specific-stuff aside) and could be very valuable. Even just memoirs with annecdotal experiences would be...

This case might seem unique in its sensational nature, but it is remarkably similar to the Harry Tracy case. Tracy was armed with a 30-30 and several revolvers. No scary assault weapons required....

I used to have a training officer that frequently used the term “dressed to intimidate” when referring to the dress or apparel of gang members/affiliates and street level dope dealers. It transcends...

In light of this article....

... I'm very interested to see how the Springfield does around the 12,000+ round mark.

Excellent info guys, thanks for the replies.

I don't personally own one, but I know someone at work that carries one of these http://www.1110gear.com/eleven-10-kydex-cat-tourniquet-case/ on his duty belt.

After a somewhat frustrating recent range session, I read the excellent thread regarding the use of imagery to assist with trigger control and it brought to light a question that I’ve had.

This reminds me of the concept of learning to drive a stick shift.... It doesn't really make sense until you see how an actual clutch works. Visualizing what is going on inside of a mechanical device...
