Local muni good friend of mine used his department issued TQ to save someone life and got a commendation for it. This was ~4 years ago.

Maybe the recruiter has the wrong info, or just passed on an easy explanation to dismiss lambeosaurus. Through my CoC my unit has said that we will not take on people on "attach posting". I would not call this lazy or ignorant, not when you consider the outcome if said attached member fails the...

No you can't.

I don't think a shooter new to ARs will be well served by a 6.8. My suggestion is to go to Arms East and tell Walter you are a service member and are looking for your first AR. A 16" DI Stag Arms would do you well. If you can spend a bit more, the DD line is quite nice and is sold exclusively...

When you can get an imported Colt 6920 for ~$1500 (or a Daniel Defense for $1700), a +$2000 C7/C8 makes no sense.

Reserve QL3s should be 9 weeks long. They are, for sure, not 6 months long.

If the courses are listed on the DIN then that's a good sign. From talking to an instructor at CFMPA last month I walked away with the impression that running 3 course simultaneously would be hard. So running a fourth one was very doubtful. Looks like I was wrong. Carry on.

I really doubt CFMPA can/would run 4 QL3s at the same time. Last I heard one was going to start in the summer (June?) and one in the fall (September?) My information is dated as of a month ago. You should check your sources.

Concur. I bought one 4 years ago as a gift for someone and ended up keeping it, which is a touch silly since I'll never really use it. Mine is the steel version and I have had to keep the blade oiled to keep it rust free. Mine did not come with this scabbard, it was just a Kydex with Molle...

The armoured recce exchange has been discussed at the local level for some time. I have some good acquaintances at the BCR through my involvement shooting at the BCRA matches. I have asked for many things over the years because of my perception of a gap in our skills/knowledge. Last time we...

Aaaaaaand, here you go again, talking about things you know little about, about a trade you haven't seem to be able to understand. Don't mistake your bias and limited experience for the entirety of the trade. You, AGAIN, really need to STFU on this topic. You have a bone to pick and can't seem...

That would only make sense. Maybe things are different in other units/regt. I came to the same conclusions as you did RG, a while ago, and asked the same questions. Shamrock is in a better position than I am to get the latest info, but last I was briefed it was as I have stated above. We are...

The problem is not the length of the actual MPAC, the issue is how long will it take to get you on one (and then transferred).  The next scheduled MPAC is in Winnipeg in August, geared towards reservist applicants (and members who still need to go through.) If you miss that one it might be a...

The direction that I have right now is that no member will be recruited/transfered into the platoon until they have successfully completed MPAC.

You would have to do MPAC before coming over, and that can take a while. I love the PRes MPs, but in your case Infantry sounds like the only reasonable option.

Indeed. If you gave me a sling that worked, I wouldn't buy another one to put on my service rifle. If the Cadex grip (that WE spec) wasn't such a turd, I wouldn't mind having an issued one on my rifle. As it stands I don't use a front grip anyways, but there is no way the POS Cadex grip is...

If you would be so kind.

Won't be able to attend, but I am interested. Do they post cliff notes?

Yes

1. Don't know. 2. June is what I heard, from multiple reliable sources.
