Riposte1,
Ok, I know I said, I said it all, but here is one humurous note I think you will appreciate since you are obviously a LEO with a lot of smarts and are a Firearms Instructor to boot.
One nice Friday September day about 1994, I was on the range with about 15 disinterested agents who enjoyed an "easy" day and an early get home sort of scenario. I was trying to instruct the nuances of "Combat Loading" of our issue 12 gauge Remington 870s. Get the picture: We put the shells in our "weak side" pockets and load the tube while watching the bad guys. So far, so good, right?
Well, with 15 "Pilgrims" on the line with shotguns we had two jams from the get go and my two line coaches responded to the "Problems." First agent tried to load a BIC lighter into the tube and another old timer put a half-roll of Tums into his 870 tube! So much for combat loading the shotgun when miscellaneous "stuff" is in the same pocket as the shells!
Like I said, I carefully selected the agents I wanted on certain cases. Be well
Adam
