Cool. Forward that to APD so they stop having NDs with their shotguns.
That was actually a bad plan, IMO.

Yep... This is what happens when you have someone who hates guns in charge.

Better plan that what they are doing no?
Agree there is a betterer plan.
I do not like the idea of pressing the trigger on a gun to prepare it for carry unless it is towards a specifically designed backstop. We had to do that when sealing the gun.
More importantly, I did not like relying on someone else's word regarding the condition of a firearm I might need to use. Don't we teach that? "Never take another's word".
Agreed.3 times? There P&Ps need to be reworked.
Again, agreed.If they are going to have officers press the triggers, then they need a safe place for the muzzle to be placed.
Some of you need calm down. Your prejudice is showing again. Clearly there is a problem. I imagine it will be addressed pretty quickly.
We just had a member here with a pages long thread who had an ND. I don't recall the level of outrage for him.
The level of cop hate here from some of you is just disproportionate.
I am interested Jon the solutions, the procedures YOU would have for issuing a firearm to an officer coming on duty. Remember, the officer picks up the shotgun at work, he does not take it home. If additional training is part of your plan, Please when that training will take place in relation to the officers work schedule, and how the training will be paid for.
Yeah, that's who I had in mind when I typed that. Plus all the like minded flunkies he's hired/promoted.Acevado?

Ah, the old, "If you're going to criticize, you need to be able to do it better / fix the problem!" fallacy.
Who else dry fires to safety check? I sure as hell don't, unless at a range, but not even then usually. Personally, I don't even see the use of dry practice.
Want to win at any shooting sport? Want to just be a good shot? Dry fire is mandatory for any real achievement in shooting.Personally, I don't even see the use of dry practice.

You should try dry fire practice.

It is not a safety check, really. They want to carry with the gun not cocked. Gotta press the trigger on a shotgun to do that....
Yeah, good point. I have, a lot. I stopped when I realized that it doesn't simulate recoil, so what's the point. Once you have developed muscle memory and have good shooting mechanics, there should be no problem. Plus, there is always a risk pulling the trigger in your home. Just my thoughts.
