Good handguns

I think both of you overestimate yourselves. Not all cops are as you describe. Maybe you know the crappy ones that don't care, or they have issues they don't want

I think both of you overestimate yourselves. Not all cops are as you describe. Maybe you know the crappy ones that don't care, or they have issues they don't want to discuss which affects their shooting.

The fundamentals ARE important, but I think some people refuse to practice them or listen to the instructions.

Shooting head shots at the 15 yard line isn't hard at all. I can do that all day. Going a year w/o shooting only made you more careful and focused.

All I'm saying is please don't generalize the LEO's. I also want to reiterate that the luxury of taking more time at the range rests with those that don't have as much on their plate as the LEO's.

You would be amazed at how many people cannot keep them on PAPER at the 15 yard line. No, I know plenty of cops that can shoot quite well. It just amazes me that I know any that don't shoot even adequately, much less that freely admit that all they care about is qualification every so often/don't know what caliber their weapon is. It's like if I were incapable of properly titrating cardiac drips. I could not function at my job if I could not use the IV pumps, etc.

LE has a lot on their plate, yes, but so do others that shoot well. I condense my 40+ hour work weeks into 3-4 days, so that does give me the unique chance to shoot more, as I have half the week off, sometimes the big half, sometimes the little. It alternates.
