Law enforcement personnel are taught how to shoot, when to shoot and maybe how to repair the gun models that we carry. But what do you do when your need for gun knowledge in the field goes beyond that?
There are 393 million guns in private hands in the U.S., that’s 120.5 guns for every 100 residents. Your chances of encountering them regularly are definite. As a result, your agency needs personnel who can ensure that firearms are accurately identified and classified so that court cases are not lost due to misidentification, violations are not overlooked, no injuries occur during handling, and arrests are not made for something that is not illegal.
