No one that I have read ever mentioned “Mandating” training it’s just most folks would benefit a lot more than they realize. Simply having a firearm doesn’t mean you’re safe. Most of Tom Givens data is most folks had he “I can’t believe it’s happening to me” training can help with how to react...

Agreed. It’s a state mandate and they have either show up and get a prize or minimum standards. With minimum standards a CCWclass is like getting a drivers license. Everyone had to pass a test yet look at a large percentage of drivers. Passing a test once DOES NOT equal Proficiency….routinely...

Yeah there is that. Lots of TV and wall replacement under the table.

I would respectfully disagree on the common sense part. After 33 years of LE and teaching there (to include FLETC) I teach private classes for firearms as a retirement gig. From basic new folks to some how to carry classes and some of what I see. Many people think having a gun will...

Why, Firearms and parts Manufacturing companies want to sell gun folks stuff. 98% of it is unpractical. That is the basic answer. And it’s not unconstitutional if someone wants to waste their money on silliness. Convince gun folks they need something through the YouTube gun channels they sponsor...

I work with 2 Gunsite Instructors. One I teach with the other is my Sheriff and helps me certify retired Agency staff. They are Phenomenal Instructors and Great People off the range to be around. I have always wanted to go and plan to this year.

Nah Indianapolis although not as big a liberal Island like Bloomington (Bloomington is Indiana’s version that Austin is to Texas) they will charge you for being a criminal in a no criminal zone. A far cry from NY

I believe some were recruited from the professional shooting sports. After basic and AIT they were “assigned” AMU. I read of a couple from back in the 1990’s when they hade these things Called Magazines. Not sure if it’s the same now

The only place that could have an issue was the local gun shop IF there was such a restriction on that type of firearm. My part time gig is doing gunbrowker dor a gun shop and several states that have laws we have to have an e mail that the dealer accepts responsibility and pinning mags or...

A little better interview with Mr Dickins Attorney Guy Reliford...

The Attorney is Guy Reliford. He is a 2A guy is on the USCCA retainer and also host the Gun Guy every Saturday in Indianapolis WIBC.

Just relaying my experience having used both Mossberg and Remington in both Military and LE service. Our Mossbergs in the Military didn’t not work out. And it wasn’t operator error they just sid not hold up. The Renington 870 did not have many issues other than the routine life cycle of...

I have seen nothing but issues with box mag Fed shotguns wether Mossberg or Remington. And a friend attended a Gunsite Shotgun class in Indiana saw 2 regular tube Fed Mossbergs go down in that 3 day class. So I’d stay away from the box mag guns. And if you’re going to pressure test anything...

Not a training issue and these were bit new and range mags. When dropped onto concrete more times than not rounds were kicked out. And the only JHP that we could find the Fed was Winchester Ranger. Silvertip, Fed 9BP and HST about 2/3 times a mag it caugh ton the chamber and was pushed into the...

Maybe howeve I am basing my experience of witnessing several dozen different Colt SMGs over several years. From running annual qualifications to SORT Training to when I taught new agency Firearms Instructors at FLETC. So it wasn’t an isolated incident. With Colt and a Colt Magazines it will...

I have extensive experience with Colt 9mm SMG with my last Agency. I will just say Colt 9mm mags are horrible. There was only a couple Hollow Points it would feed without the bolt pushing the bullet halfway into the case. They are hard to seat even if download from 32 to 30 rounds and if...

Dealing with importation is a freaking minefield. With 33 years of LE experience and the vagueness of the article I’d presume there is still an investigation ongoing so they aren’t tipping the hand yet. there were more than likely some prohibited import parts like receivers etc. And the sling...

Yes! I have DA revolvers in 38 only 357 and 45 acp (like revolvers) have M&P in 9mm (2) and 45 (2) I have had Glocks in other calibers with my 9mm As far as SIg I have carried a Sig P series since 1994. A 220 in 45 then a 228 with part of my DOJ career and now run a 226 Legion. Sigs are great...

With a Glock it is. On a Glock the trigger cocks/compresses and then releases the striker as the striker is at a forward position where most other makes its cocked. unless I am misreading your post

Yea there’s that. I shot one just the other day and I’m trying to forget about it LOL
