Britney, I concur.  The reality of the enemy starting their attack 30ft feet out by charging is very, very unlikely.  I think the reason why the drill was conceived was to show that other tactics must be practiced because actual engagement ranges (for LEO's at least) is much shorter than that...

Garry I hope you are not under the impression that I was attacking your opinion, I had no such intention. What you said about the 30 foot drill and people spilling BS is the truth.  I have tried the drill in the past as you suggested also.  What I have found is that the attacker with attack...

Then how does one account for the success in utilizing this transition by the number of premier SWAT and SF units?   I believe for the instances that the target does close the gap, extreme CQB shooting tactics should be employed.   To "...get your sidearm out and up..." isn't necessarily needed...

Speaking of Under Armour...  Has anyone tried out the Cold Gear line from them?  Not that it has much relevance this time of year.....

:D  lol, good one

  It's not nice to stimulate my curiosity, then go on to not state/speculate the weapons being reviewed/trialed... >:(

    I may sound argumentative, but I don't mean it.  The act of evolution isn't always to a more advanced state, or it may be in one area, but may take a step back in another. A chemical reaction would be an evolution, yet not every reaction advances into a superior form.  I always understood...

  You got me.   :(   I meant intentionally misspelling, I always had a problem in remembering the spelling for grammar.   EDIT - Nothing came up in the spell check in my original post, though.

In my opinion, I believe the use of shorthand, l33tspeek, etc., is just the english language evolving. A few years ago, I was reading an article in which some inter-city schools in the U.S., are teaching Ebonics because it has become so commonplace.  The manner of speech in which people...

Sorry to hear of your experience, GENOMS.  Although, I've never been mugged or held up myself, I do have two stories to tell of situations of two good friends of mine. 1)  A few years ago, a highschool friend of mine was walking home and was held up by three guys wanting money.  He told them he...

For distance.  Once you are able to run farther, you will be able to run shorter distances faster.  By shorter distances I mean 1.5 - 4 kms.  It really depends on what is long and short though.  short may be 500 metres for some or 5000 metres for others. 

    Couldn't agree more, spot on.

    So there will be three elements, the light infantry, a special operations group and the JTF?  Or will the light infantry and the JTF become the special operations group?

    i would love to see their rationale and evidence supporting their case....

    Well, I don't think anyone got your opinion with a statement like that... :D  I have an idea for you though, how about you learn how to spell, then post back here with a coherant arguement.  Maybe then I'll take you seriously.  Did this make sense to anyone?  All I got was "Yup, everyone...

I have much respect for cops, they got a ugly job to do and are often held back by civvy watch groups and legislation, but 'the show must go on'.  It is sad to see that some people do not believe that violence does not occur in their community and refuse the tools to those that require them...

You don't seem to understand. She knows me far too well, she has me wrapped around her finger. Its terrible, just terrible. "Yes dear, no dear, three bags full dear".    Piper, you're already on your way to crossing over to the dark side.   Fortunately, you are still young enough to be...

Well, your local restricted firearms dealer/s should be able to bring them in and pin them if needed, to comply with the law.  Seeing as how assembled 30rd mags are illegal in Canada it is going be impossible to get them here for private use.  If you were to try bringing mags across the border...

Just gotta make sure I look cool going down to the cadet camp to pick one up for a weekend, that'll look just great.    "Shes a close friend who happens to still be in cadets, I swear"..."yah right, pervert".      Or you can be a man and tell her to be waiting at a point of your choosing...

    So what you are basically saying is that you really want to impress this girl because you got a crush and want to hook up with her.... ;)  Good attempt at trying to conceal it, though.  I would look into the limo, or even a 'town car' service.  Some limo places have lincold town cars or...
