“immediately overpowering a leo” is a weak excuse. if you have a gun, use it. a gun’s a gun. assault rifles tend to have a slower rate of fire than a pistol and a finger. use that to your advantage.
you were trained; use that training. if you’re being overpowered, then play it smart. again, you learned this in post. as a junior instructor i would think you’d know about how to act tactically. please use what you’re teaching in your own context.
billy, don’t be a hero, don’t be a fool with your life.
If we had 1 SWAT operative or 1 CRT agent the CHAOS in v2 would be handled accordingly considering if you’ve ever been in v2 for the past couple days its been ridiculous. It’s better to have 1 SWAT operative or 1 CRT agent patrolling with some type of rifle.
then don’t ask for rifles but ask for better activity on swat and crt’s end. not that hard to differentiate between “we need rifles for everyone” and “swat/crt doesn’t patrol enough”
A rifle would not help you in close quarters against a fucking AK47. Use your fucking training with your glocks. You all complain when there is a training hosted, how about you go to the training, learn the skills and then you won’t need a rifle.
That is the thing, such situations that cant be really dealt by regular LEOs are RARE. 4 Criminals with AR guns? Page CRT or SWAT, simple, you have FNG at last. And yes, you have to protect everyone until it’s not too safe, when it happens your mission is not to kill the suspect, your mission is to protect civilians until CRT/SWAT/FNG doesn’t arrive on scene, you have pistols to do that (Yes they are enough to provide at least surpressive fire, which is enough). I cant see any regular police with big guns in any country, even USA, max - pistol, but, police in every country has special forces that respond to such situations and have big guns, and yeah, they dont patrol all the time or arrive immediately.
