I’ve seen LEO shoot. They need extended mags more often than not. Just sayin’.
you ain't joking...
i have been to the public range (i mentioned this a time or two), where the city cops of that area, often go there as well, to either qualify an officer, or for some "additional training" especially in the dark, with thier flashlights.
they (range management) make us wait, till they are done, that's a given....
there have been times, an officer is just qualifying (i imagine the normal time frame each year...??) and yes, i have seen the target(s), and heard the shots, while i was in a port not far from them......this is when we can enter the range, as it's only qualifying....
i have to say that too, they rapid fire, which we cannot do, or are not supposed to do (depending on RSO)...usually us CCW people can rapid fire, all others cannot.
so it " can be" the rapid firing, and the need for extra mags, over say, not hitting the target, precisely where it is supposed to be hit.???
