If the guy leading the exercise has the tick in the box that says he's qualified, then if somebody gets hurt nobody in his chain will get in poo poo for authorizing or endorsing a great evil backalley training regimen, notwithstanding that the "authorized PT" is led by a "loving idiot". If guys are told to go to an organized PT thing led by someone who isn't qualified and one of them winds up in the MIR, someone's getting poo poo on.

If you aren't an officer, aircrew, medic or MP, your primary weapon will be the C-7 and its variants. You'd gain no advantage from pistol practice. If you already have a restricted firearms license, I imagine the only barrier to owning that particular weapon would be finding one. If you don't, read this. For all the misery involved you'd be better off to see if there's a range nearby that can rent you a similar weapon. Also, your rank is Pte(R).

Mr.48 posted:I found the slide catch to be very uncomfortable to operate, and like others said, having to put in a mag to clear the pistol seems pretty dumb from a safety standpoint. Anything stored as pile of pieces in a triwall with a sheet of paper taped to the side that has "AIRCREWS WAPONS" written on it in pencil has no business being mentioned in the same breath as "a safety standpoint".

Dude wandered back onto the base a couple of weeks before his course started, got charged, pled guilty, paid a fine. Totally worth it in my view.

Serious question because I've never been in one: I'm guessing the weight of the vehicle makes a roll cage over the crew hatch impractical, and an emergency "get the gently caress back in here" seat would probably just rip the crew commander's arms off? Is there no way to protect the occupant aside from depending on his situational awareness* to get back into the vehicle before it lands on him? (*Which isn't to imply someone hurt or killed in a rollover was being inattentive, of course)

Sixerfixer posted:Well, one's dead. I actually feel terrible about this, 'cause as nice as it to know that the rear end in a top hat who did it was shot the gently caress dead, I wish we could hear and know what exactly went on in that crazy head of his. I feel like this is going to give the gov't carte blanche to send us somewhere/ double down on IS. The reports I heard said something about his company having been the victim of some kind of property crime, and he was unhappy with the level of support the police had given to him when he tried to report it. This made him angry with the government, so he turned to the internet for some rational advice on how to channel his frothing tantrum. This led him to join some Islamic extremists and change his name to Ahmad leConverti, and he totally would've gone to join them if the RCMP hadn't taken his passport away, so instead he had to focus his rage for the glory of some guys he met online by running over a guy in his 50s in a parking lot. Hm. Maybe staying out of journalism was the right call.
