    RCMP New Firearms Required Discussion- Split From New MP Decal Thread

    Neither am I, and I believe its the best possible choice. Not because its the best gun overall, although that's open to shooter preference and personal opinion, but because the Glock hasn't meaningfully changed since Gen 1 in 1982. We can train our members to use it and the RDS/flashlight, and...

    RCMP New Firearms Required Discussion- Split From New MP Decal Thread

    I can't post the screen shot from the internal release, but the new pistol selection has finally been announced: Glock 45 Gen 5 Aimpoint Acro P-2 Streamlight TLR-7X Safariland holster Nanuk 910 carrying/travel locking case I would expect the announcement of contract award will be on the PSPC...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    You're correct, and I've used the wrong word. I suppose what I mean by enforce is spend a lot more time letting CSIS/INSET types gather intel and figure out the who's who, share that information with India, and honour any extradition requests that come as a result of that, as an example? To be...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    I'm aware of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. When I said politically ugly, I meant that any serious enforcement action taken will cause mass protest, civil disorder, violence and probably death in certain communities in Canada, regardless of how lawful or appropriate that enforcement action...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    I think the key to re-aligning ourselves with India relations is to stop being a repository for their separatist movement. That mean decisive and ultimately politically ugly action here in Canada.

    Active Shooter / Hostile Event ( ASHE ) prevention / response

    Both indoor ranges are running during the day as well as quite often at night as well depending on what demand looks like.

    Active Shooter / Hostile Event ( ASHE ) prevention / response

    I can't say with absolute certainty those members did in fact have C8s in their hands as I wasn't there, but there is no reason they shouldn't have. The C8 course is now taught at Depot, the rifles themselves have now been around long enough we're on to our second generation of rifle (only...

    Active Shooter / Hostile Event ( ASHE ) prevention / response

    I recall similar from both my user and instructor course, been a while since I've been able to teach it though. In the same presentation it also explains why showing up with lights and sirens engaged and yelling "POLICE! STOP!" repeatedly during entry and advance to contact is such an important...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    They're Mounties, changed just enough to avoid any kind of legal action.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    Because sometimes, that's our job. There is more than one name on the RCMP Memorial in Regina there because they were hopelessly outgunned in the rolling gun fight.

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    Ah, alrighty. West Shore had a similar reputation out here for more than a couple years.

    West Shore, by chance?

    Transition to Municipal Police Force

    Ah yes, Surrey Central mall. A place where many of the firsts in my career took place. Never change. In other news... I wonder how Mayor "It Won't Cost a Single Extra Dollar" is doing these days?

    British Columbia NDP Majority Government 2024-(no later than) 2029

    Cool. Until they and the Federal Government figure out how to stop stripping the CAF of lands and facilities in BC and start helping us expand and engage with British Columbians, this is all a wet fart in the wind.

    RCMP: "Terrorism Peace Bond Issued in (PEI) 3-D printed firearms case"

    I have, but I didn't get that impression from the people I met. I have nothing but good things to say about the time I've spent in Atlantic Canada (minus Gagetown)
