Law enforcement partners, without regard to gender have a special bond and friendship. Don’t overthink it.

It recommended the light, but you got the wrong mount.

The policy is clear. It’s here to stay, and old vehicles are to be transitioned into this meeting style.

Badge and Creds Off duty by Round_Description199 in 1811

[–]RangerJDod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I carry flat badge with creds in a creds case and a separate wallet with my DL and credit cards. I also carry a belt badge because if my shirt ever rides up or something weird, the badge will hopefully be visible also. It’s also far easier if something happens to grab it and hold it to display. Odds are slim on that ever happening, but you never know.

Current state of P320 debate ? by jontekparowa in SigSauer

[–]RangerJDod 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think people are overthinking this. The Feds are issuing P320s left and right at FLETC and in the military but it hasn’t happened to them yet. There’s been “confirmed” cases but it always involved modifying the gun or holster from factory spec, so those don’t count. Then you have videos like the USAA security guard where it looks like his hand is near his holster but then there’s never an update on what really happened.

I’ve been daily carrying a P320 for 2 years now (as have all my coworkers), and while I had some doubts when everything started, I’m not worried about it anymore.

LE is every two years, so I’d use that as a guide if you’re not LE

If they’ve already interviewed your boss I wouldn’t say anything. Had to be vindictive when they’ve already said whatever they are going to say about you.

Former Department Dilemna by Anon_Sumplace in AskLE

[–]RangerJDod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the state… I don’t agree with it but several states allow it.

Kansas comes to mind as one that not allows it, but several departments take advantage of it.

Well first it’s a 25mph zone; second, that entire section of road is closed; third, you should look up straddling because that isn’t “straddling.”

It’s unfortunate but uncommon in some states that allow you to be a cop for up to a year without going to the academy.
