    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    Expertise and able to handle it safely aren't the same thing. One doesnt need to be an expert to keep the weapon holstered. Sure but again thats a training failure. Should we adopt our policies based on the expectation that we won't actually conduct mandated annual refresher training? Again...

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    If you do the training package that the C22 mandates, it's fairly robust and should result in comfort with a readief pistol. That said I reiterate the issue is that we should begin training with a pistol on the assumption you'll carry it loaded and readied. The problem becomes now we have to...

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    I would actually hazard a guess and say the CAF is probably the only organization in the country that doesnt begin pistol training with the pistol in the holster, to include the load ready drill ending with a return to holster.

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    Every police service in the country does this. Manual safeties are largely seen as obsolete one combat hand guns. Glocks use a trigger safety for example. A pistol should be bolstered with a round chambered. That keeps anything beyond the shooter from operating the trigger. Frankly if Brink's...

    New Army Badge

    If you did something from 1869 to 1949 that obviously makes it more important than what you did from 1949 to 2026, the 3 year difference is critical.

    New Army Badge

    the Commonwealth Prime Ministers Conference decided to drop the title of Dominion in 1949. That supersedes the 1867 act. Its been moved on from, is no longer in use, and holds 0 meaning legally or culturally.

    New Army Badge

    "Dominion" has be scrapped from Federal law since 1951 and it stopped being relevant in 1931. The last piece of it all died with Canada Day was officially renamed in 1982. It doesnt appear in law, or the constituation here or in Britain. The UK refers to Canada as a Realm of the Commonwealth.

    A-10 Warthog

    Sorry this is a deeply flawed comment. Youre conflating Air to Air munitions and Air to Ground. A-10s are flying without their self defence load of AIM9s. You probably aren't flying air AI or CAS if youre so short of air to air weapons that you can't fly DCA or OCA missions. Similarly the use...

    A-10 Warthog

    If we he have a high enough threat environment to worry about the A10s being shot out of the sky for lack of countermeasures i sincerely doubt a rotor is going to stay flying for very long on the FLOT. Since no gunship MV-75 is in development, US Army wants two distinct platforms, thats a non...

    A-10 Warthog

    So far 1, but they were the most shot down aircraft in the Gulf War. To which i provided examples very much against. Thats youre experience, not a fact. Im fairly positive i work with a wider variety of pilot communities, especially fighters, than most people on this site. Love of their...

    A-10 Warthog

    What you actually said was pilots hate it. Then said essentially that all pilots love third machines. If you'd written what you just did I'd agree, but you didn't.

    A-10 Warthog

    Provide me an example ! Provides examples No a more specific example to reaches my new goal post! Im obviously not going to get into specific aircraft capabilities and why some pilots prefer x or y on an open board. This isnt Warthunder.
