Another Excited Recruit! Followed by another volley of (well deserved) cynism. C_rey88: Looking cool feels good and, I would argue, should be part of the equation. But that should only be part of the equation only after you have defined the requirement. You are asking us to help you define your...

It is the IARD kit. (BlackHawk plate carrier w/ molle).

While s/he didn't contribute much to this conversation, if amancalledhawk had started a new thread, he would have been told to do a search before posting. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Since this was brought up again: After this thread was originally posted I sent an email/memo up the...

Necro post. I am becoming a HUGE fan of Solely Canadian Holsters. I ran one for a plain clothes detail and I am looking at adding a few more for different purposes/pistols. Canadian made, great customer service and quick turn around. Well priced, quality holsters.

A minor miracle seems to be in the making: PRes MPs might get 2 couple of slots on RegF QL3s on a yearly basis. Might not sound like much, but its more than what we had before. From memory the requirements will be: QL5 qualified (Mind you, we are already trying to circumvent this one, as we...

I just got a war boner at the thought of an AC-52 SuperSpooky, raining a cone of fiery death from 30k feet. My apologies for the tangent.

Indeed. A match .223 Wylde chamber on my VLTOR.

Yeah, I went off the rails there. Alright, lets get pedantic. Define your requirement for me. Competition? Courses? Home defense? (;P) Just to have one? LCF? It's nice to have a complete factory rifle from the factory, in that sense the SA15.7 has the edge. It's also nice to have the...

Let me paraphrase what one of my friend said: There is no such thing as a commercial production line at Colt Canada. All the rifles produced are subject to get pulled off the line and get quality tested by one of the two permanently attached CF quality control inspector. I don't know this for a...

My advice: Do it. My IUR doesn't seem eavier than my VLTOR upper w/ full profile barrel. What the IUR is: Accurate (freakinly so for a mass produced upper) and reliable. My opinion: If you can afford it, there are no reasons to own anything else than Colt Canada

Put me in coach.

Acknowledged issues: 1- Zero shifting in various temperature. Unacknowledge issues: 1- Short battery life 2- Prism migration/unglueing 3- Can't leave batteries in 4- Sights turning off while firing 5- Sights turning off due to heat The Eotech is a turd. It has taken way too long for big army...

I'm bumping this up. This is over 10 years old and, at the time this was posted, really started me down the path of professional development regarding ballistics and the effectiveness of the M16FOW. To this day I still introduce many to some of the info that is shared here. Will we ever learn?

Sigh. The online anonimity is a double edge sword. ResMP has little to prove to anyone IMHO. His policing experience is quite sufficient.

I am always suspicious of people who want to become MPOs. I've seen too many who did not understand the job description. Most make the best of it, but the reality is quite mundane. If you want to be a cop, MPO ain't the best place for you. But hey, have at her.

This should be interesting.

I am cautiously optimistic. As a reserve chauvinist, this makes me tremendously happy. Never mind that I always had a soft spot for the BCR.

Oui.

Iltis?

I've heard rumors that Beretta will not be considered (at all) for the pistol replacement contract.
