    The trigger pull of a Glock is not heavy at all.

    There are tactical response groups, (counter terrorism types) that are full time jobs but the AOS positions are not full time jobs, they are suplementary to the cops normal duties.

    In fact, its fucken light compared to some.......
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Correct.
    If you would like to go back and re-read all the posts in this thread you might find that we were talking about reliability of .45ACP pistols. Sniper has had problems with reliabilty whereas I have not.
    A standard service firearm has to have a heavy trigger for 2 reasons.
    #1 US liability laws making it even more necessary for the manufacturers to make it hard to fire a firearm.
    #2 To prevent small brained retards from firing a firearm "acidentally" (forget safties and simply keeping finger OFF trigger)

    The glock has a standard trigger pull. Get used to it.

    If you want to know about using firearms correctly and safely go and talk to Sniff.

    Sorry mate, an off-target piss-take at a newbie

    I think you might have set a new record for the number of spelling / grammar mistakes in one small post. And Hitcher is our resident grammarian.

    Fu*ken great. The dude suffered from schizophrenia and his anti-psychotic drug were not working (probably stopped taking them).
    One of the problems of schizophrenia is that you think you are fine and don't need them, so they stop taking them. Then you start going off and think that the doctors/nurses are try to poison you with the anti-psychotic drug. By that time you need taking in cause you're already having dilutions. To bad you need to be deemed to be a danger to yourself or the public before you get put under the Mental Health Act.
    Just before you go down the "Lock all the Nutters up" or "shot the Crazies" here somethings for you to think about:
    Many people suffer from mental illness (including schizophrenia) and have learnt to control their illness and are safe in the community.
    1 in 4 humans have the potential becoming effect with schizophrenia (certainly there is a lot of us that have dilutions about our abilities).
    Many "normal" (non-psychotic) medical health problems will effect you abilities to think properly and even cause you to have a form of psychosis.

    Flame me if it makes you feel better, but there are more aways to deal with a crises than using a gun.

    Agreed, but at the time he was a danger to people around him and to the police.

    If you're stupid enough to charge an armed policeman then you deserve what you get.

    Don't you think this might interfere with their traffic ticket issuing quota time???????? Seeing as No one is going to do it outside work time!
