aka being a Cop. I just watched 20 police shoot-out videos and in at least half of them their glock jammed, no exaggeration. Should Police departments be equipped with sidearms that are less likely to jam when you limp-wristing it because you are shitting yourself? 100% serious.
It's so funny to me that American cops are allowed to carry lethal weapons and employ them against their own citizens without even knowing how to fucking use them. Honestly, they are so pathetic.
Bring back the 357 revolver.
I unironically believe the police should have never stopped using .38s as their standard sidearm; it's more reliable and less aggressive, cops shouldn't be pulling a gun unless it's a last resort. Buy having near 20 rounds ready to go at all times their lizard brains are more likely to want to shoot up something. Sure they should keep rifles in the car to respond to active shootings or whatever but the day to day should never been anything more than a wheel gun.
Also revolvers just look cooler
.38 revolvers
12 ga pump shotguns
.30-06 bolt actions with non detachable 10rds max magazines
Furniture: stainless steel, brass and wood. No black color.
Make it the law. Remove weapons of war from our streets!
>No black color
Except for revolver grips
>Except for revolver grips
No. Stainless steel and nut wood. Black is negative offensive color.
They are more reliable but a gun is a gun, how non-aggressive can it be? This is a training issue more than a equipment issue, don't encourage trigger happiness
Also forgot to mention that they are usually dealing with suspects point blank, so if they had to push their barrel into someone it wouldn't go out of battery.
Just don't do contact shots. Nothing is forcing anyone to do so. Keep a small gap so at least the pressure doesn't harm your gun
I'm talking about officers getting tackled to the ground and then fighting for space so they can get a shot off. Seen more than one instance of this happening. Overall though I think a magazine fed pistol is the way to go for officers. Just saying it's something I would consider depending on where and how I had to do my job.
>Should Police departments be equipped with sidearms that are less likely to jam when you limp-wristing it because you are shitting yourself? 100% serious.
This is a training issue. At a certain point you need to make the assessment that the individual is just simply unfit for the job.
Most cops don't train or shoot and most departments hedge their bets on the low chance of shooting actually happening so spending money on better training or even just better quality of hires is a waste of money.
This is absolutely incorrect.
This is the only correct take. You people are seriously advocating cops who can't shoot a fucking Glock to have a heavy double action pull, crude sights and only six rounds to solve a problem? lmfao get real
half the board would fall apart if they had to do a bill drill from the draw with a DAO revolver at speed let alone a diversity hire cop
>to have a heavy double action pull, crude sights and only six rounds to solve a problem?
Nah do it like japan where the guns are modified for SA only :^)
Also bring back the 80s thing where cops would have to qualify with their Hi power or Smith and Wesson before being able to take their wonder nine out on duty. If they haven't qualified on autos then the revolver and barney fife treatment is what they get.
>licks boot
>tasty!
>i want cops to be underpowered on purpose so they dont get in the way of race wars!
Its just an extension of the issue where police just don't train enough with their guns outside of yearly quals. Cops also never clean their service pistol unless a superior threatens to dock them if they don't do it immediately and in front of them.
But limp-wristing is definitely one of the only sensible reasons to push a J-frame on somebody that wants to carry but isn't going to do a lot of shooting to gitgud.
It's easy to keep a good grip on an auto while target shooting with both hands, and even one handed (if you're male). But if you've got someone bearing down on you and you have to use one arm to fight while you draw, or you've been knocked to the ground, punched in the head, etc... having a gun that goes bang no matter your grip has value.
>(if you're male)
1. Don't put women in frontline police/military roles.
2. Make a weapon with grips designed for delicate hands.
all cops should be women
Where there's life, there's hope
most cop guns have 12lbs triggers
>abolish the police
Problem solved
do the police need a shrouded hammer ?
only if they're plainclothes
mine still uses p226s
what a retarded thread made by people who have never had to fire a gun in self defense.
>muh six round revolver is enough
ok bro have fun dumping 6 rounds while your adrenaline is pumping at Jamal and the homies when they chimp out, you miss all except maybe 1, it doesnt stop the pavement ape coming at you, and you then have 0.5sec to reload before he guts you like a fish or pounds your head into the pavement
>bonus points: all 6 shots hit, the super predator continues coming at you and kills you
fucking retards. The solution to limp-wristed retard cops is to either 1. train them better or 2. get them off the streets and stop hiring sub 100iq mongroloid retard cops, not gimping the weapons they can use.
>stop hiring sub 100iq mongroloid retard cops
Anon, those are the only """people""" who want to be cops in 2023
Or just issue a semi auto mag fed pistol that has no limp wrist issues.
Nah, if they’re limping they’re not going for the kill anyway. If they’re not going for the kill then they shouldn’t be shooting at anything.
They’re probably shooting generally hoping someone else gets the kill or it makes the bad guy want to break contact.
Who can blame these kids? If there’s an angle that makes whoever they shot look like jaquinziekiel jacson dindu nuffin then they’re fucked. Poor jaquinziekiel was a criminal for 38 years but he was about to turn it around you know?
Jerry Miculek shows that it really is the Indian not the arrow that's the problem. Bring revolver back!
Most guns don't jam up if you hold them slightly wrong.
>buying a*strian guns
ngmi
most of the failures are caused by the cop falling backwards while shooting. falling on the ground is obviously going to rob the slide of inertia so it wont cycle correctly
First handgun I ever shot was my dad model 29 when I was 10. Handled it no problem.
