I am curious. I hear quite a bit about how police are not well trained in firearm usage and don't practice much. For most of the police I know this appears to be untrue but "people I know" is hardly a representative sample. You do not have to identify your agency if you do not want to.
Any current, armed, sworn law enforcement or military police is what I am wondering about. If you retired 5-40 years ago that tells us what it tells us in the past but is not really what I am looking for.
1- How many training and Qualification rounds a year do you shoot for and through your agency?
Pistol/ Rifle/ Shotgun/ other
2- If you are on a special team such as Sniper/ Swat/ High Risk Apprehension etc do you shoot additional rounds and if so how many training/ qualification/ competition?
3. How often does your agency conduct live firearm training per year?
4. If you shoot training rounds such as sims out of your regular duty weapons how much of that do you do on an annual basis?
5. What is your round count annually on either your service weapon or similar/ same type weapon on your own time, with your provided ammo?
