AggieDave 6 #26 November 27, 2002 I'm a huge fan of Glocks, I know I love mine, the 31 is a nice weapon. For your application stay away from all the compesated versions (you can tell by having a C after the number). In CQC situation, the blast that is funneled upwards is very harmful, especially in a situation like a plane.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Even if you miss, your adversary is now at least as blind as you are..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

outofit 0 #29 November 27, 2002 archie bunker had the right idea to avoid highjackings and terrorists incidents. guns should be given to every passenger as they board the plane this way it puts everyone on an even playing field. It is better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 0 #32 November 27, 2002 OK, pre-second things pre-secoond: HIP HIP HOORAY FOR THE GOOD GUYS!!!! Now, we don't need everyone carrying guns. How about just the same ones we want carrying on the street; i.e. any cops, feds, ccws flying that flight. and the pilots and stews if they've been trained. Which reminds me: Chris, where you headed for training?

Which reminds me: Chris, where you headed for training? FLETC in Georgia? Headed now where yet. They haven't set up the course for pilots to carry guns yet. I'm just going to the local shooting range and gun shop to get instruction on basic firearm stuff. The tactical stuff will be later. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #36 November 27, 2002 If you really want something good, go through a tactical pistol course from someone like ThunderRanch or the Texas Pistol Academy. You'll spend some money, but it will be well worth it. The one I went to (Texas Pistol Academy) we shot about 1,000rds in the weekend, between classroom time, in practical scenerios, in a kill house, on a numatic steel range, a walking numatic steel trail, etc. Before I went I was already one hell of a shooter, but I learned a lot about unusual shooting (weird angles, different hands, etc) in higher stress environments (which they created). All in all a good learning experience.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My guess is they'll send you all through FLETC [Federal Law Enforcement Training Center] in Glencoe, GA.

Lizard 0 #40 November 30, 2002 I think guns in the cockpit is a bad idea. We all know guns and alcohol don't mix. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
