most street cops i've seen have no idea of how to use a firearm the swat guys could really shoot though, like really seriously good from the ones i've seen at the range
i used to have an AK. would go down to the range and just open up with it. i learned a valuable lesson the first time i went down there when i opened first and half the place turned to me with guns pointed at me. seems the sound af an AK brought about quick reaction for our recently returned military. as i stood their in terror, one calmly pointed out that it would be best in the future if i warned people as to my having an AK before opening fire. lots of similar stories from teh range, so many that i eventually stopped going. but i really did enjoy that place and the people there On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 8:42 PM, Scott Ritchey <ritche...@nc.rr.com> wrote: > > According to my local firearms instructor (who is a cop and also a firearms > instructor for his department), most cops are not particularly good shots. > They have so much other crap they have to do that for most "good enough" is > good enough when it comes to qualifying.
