Sounds like you should send Stringbean a Thank You card. You turned iut pretty good for that

Who's going to hit Jerry Lewis and for what.

This guy has saved alot of lives😊

Interesting video. Good delivery. The clam shell holsters were a horrible idea. I wonder if the inventor / maker / marketer "greased the palm" of the department procurement officer ---?

Very interesting video. I had a great teacher at MT.SAC college in Walnut, California "Patrol Procedure" class back in 1974/1975. The teacher was a "Real deal" man ---> L.A.P.D. S.W.A.T. Sgt Ron ________ . He was at the L.A.P.D. shoot out with the S.L.A. and was awarded the L.A.P.D,. Medal of Valor.

100% fact that if you don’t get called something other than what is on your birth certificate you are not a trusted member of any type of good crew

I went to Academy 1980 and it was NRA slowfire PPC. Revolvers only

Hostage Rescue for dope! Did a couple of those, but I never lit the Jeri-curl on fire with a NFDD. I did flashbang a grandma, but that's another story...

Miss Louis Awerbuck. Great classes I took with him and Scotty. I relish my squidlips moniker. If you're in SoCal, go train with ITTS.

I never met Frank, but I worked with his brother Robert out of Van Nuys Div and Robert was also an awesome guy. Still talk to him to this day and he makes the best pocket holsters.

I subbed just for Uncle Scotty.. these are great

Another bad thing about the clamshells were the way they flopped around if you were in a foot chase with a suspect. You either had to tolerate all that flapping or run with your hand on it. Top/front break holsters were probably the better holsters for field duty.

U. Scotty - What did you carry as your bachup weapon?

Has Scotty written a book? So many great stories!

These stories are gold. 😎💪👍

Could listen to him all day!😎💪👍

What a dick FTO lol

Imagine a flashbang 💥 going off on your head?😱 Dude probably had a hell of a headache and hearing damage , not to mention burns😂

Great stories

I think it’s ok.. but only during duck season

Amazing

Someone who really was running around with his hair of fire. Who would have thought it possible?

Need one for my mother in law

I can’t stop laughing! Awesome Story. 😳🤣😳🤣

I was lucky because I was right handed with my pistol and was naturally left handed with my fork.

It's called a Call Box in Newark, NJ. The same thing happened, all the guys have them hanging in their houses. 😆👮

How did you get the gun from the pool? 😆

That's some Marty Feldman shit!

In 1996 I did my academy 3 day ridealongs in Newton Div. My first day out I worked with Officer Rick Madrigal. Same thing...while I was writing in the log, every time he turned I'd look up at the street signs. The ONE time I didn't he suddenly stopped midblock and said he'd been shot. There I was, at night, running down the street in my academy issue leather oxfords, long sleeve shirt, and tie, with a flashlight up to the next corner to read the street signs. I realized he'd been watching me the whole time out of the corner of his eye to catch the time I didn't look up.

I remember getting hazed in my profession. I look back now and laugh.some of it was funny some of it embarrassing but overall it was a right of passage. Now that im at the peak of my profession i am forced to take sensitivity training. People can sue and win for getting their feelings hurt. 😂

Good for Jerry

Great story. I trained with the Stirling SMG as a senior army cadet in Canada. It was a lot of fun to shoot.

Pretty cool. Life is just strange sometimes.

Hey, lady, there's a policeman here with a shotgun!

In Houston the PPO's could not sit with the veteran officers during lunch. Try doing that today.

it may have been Police Commissioner ...Goldberg?

I queued this up while still working and barely looked at the full title. I thought it said Jerry Lee Lewis. After watching, and waiting to hear how the meetup with him went down and it turned out to be Jerry Lewis the comedian, it made it even better.

Shiny black hair is always suspicious. lol!

What a fun "martini story"

Another GREAT story thanks

These are much more creative ways of messing with a new guy. In the army it was much more juvenile as most sgts were no more than 21 years old and not very creative. Great story. Respect for old school policing.

It's duck season! It's wabbit season! Duck Season! Wabbit season! It's Elmer season!

Robbie Barkman? Of ROBAR? The gun finish guy?

Dude is a legend.

That's how it works!

Good stuff. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Pulling up in a Ferrari would get us a visit from the rat squad most ricky tick!!!

Funny that LAPD ditched their revolvers for 4506 after the NHSO. Sounds like cooper was correct

oh man.....i remember going to the kit room to get a CC unit. Central division LAPD 1988.

Talk about the when you switched from a revolver to a beretta! If you still have it that is
