Valuable insights. From utilizing ricochet fire to get around barriers and enemy cover to gauging penetration of cover. For example someone using cover on the corner of a modern house and having basic understanding of materials used and penetration data in line with various calibers.

NYPD officers have always been raised in urban environments; most have no firearms experience. The Department only taught double-action fire with the revolver. Officers would sometimes get excited and cock the hammer without the slightest idea of how to lower it! The solution was to take it to somebody who knew how to de-cock the revolver, or go somewhere where the gun could be fired! The Department was aware of this, but still chose not to train officers how to de-cock, for fear that officers would start shooting single action. So, all revolvers ordered from Smith and Wesson were delivered with the sears filed off at the factory making it impossible to cock the revolver. This began with the first purchases of the Model 64 revolver.

[@michaeltroxel5800]

This reminds me of a training video I saw more than twenty years ago, one that probably was meant to expand on the ideas in this video. They were basically taking all sorts of objects a person might choose to take cover behind (cars, dumpsters, brick and cinder block walls, etc.) and shooting at them with various calibers to demonstrate how much actual protection/stopping power such objects might offer. I believe it was intended to help a person be more mindful of how protected they are behind whatever object they've chosen for cover. Once in a while I look for it on KZbin, but so far I haven't had any luck.

Another change. On the pistol course the trainee empties the spent rounds into his hand. that is strictly to keep the range policed. It was later learned that you play how you practice. Dead cops were found with empties in their hands. The idea now or when we carried revolvers, was to dump the empties and reload as quickly as possible.

In Scout school for the Army, we got taught about the "twelve inch rabbits." Our instructors told us to stay at least a foot away from any wall while we were traversing an area and going from room-to-room. Incoming bullets will hit the wall and travel parallel. I don't actually know why they called them rabbits, but it had something to do with the ricochet bullets hitting hard surfaces and travelling parallel to the surface it hits. It's incredibly important to teach about the "twelve inch rabbits" because a human's natural instinct is to lean into a wall or surface when incoming fire occurs, which is actually the opposite of what you should do.

I started in the 74 as a police cadet in Toronto and graduated to a constable in 1977 when I was issued a 38 calibre revolver along with six extra bullets that we carried in a pouch in our pockets. This video sure brings back memories of the training we received back in those years. It was almost 20 years later before they began to issue us Glock 40 calibre pistols along with two extra magazines.

Car stops and Family Disputes are the two most deadly still in many areas in the U.S.. I always hated the revolver, I started carrying a Semiautomatic the day I got off probation. A lot of guys did in certain areas of the City, long before we officially went to the 9MM.

1:44 -- Lord God.... It's like watching Agent Hanlon from the Miami-Dade movie; he took his eyes off the target to focus on reloading his revolver exactly the way the trainee here did, and paid the price for it. It's almost surreal seeing it happen in this training video, knowing what was eventually to come of these flawed defensive pistol considerations.

[@MA-vw1pl]

My grandpa was a cop from mid60s to mid90s. He started out being issued a Revolver with only 12 extra rounds in cartridge loops. That's all he needed during the 60s. Then he was issued a speed loader during the late70s. Just one more stupid belt-gadget he thought of the speed loader. Then crack cocaine hit the streets. His new police chief mandated all uniformed cops who carried wheel guns to carry a triple pouch speed loader rig. My grandpa was finally convinced. He now sported a 357 mag revolver, 3 speed loaders, 6 rounds in beltloops and a 357 mag Snubbie for backup. Then a couple of idiots in California shotup downtown los Angeles during the mid 90s. My grandpa was dragged kicking and screaming into semiautomatics. The Dept swiped away his wheel gun and accessories and issued him a Glock 9 mil with 2 extra 17 round mags. He then decided his white hair replaced his brown hair and he turned in his retirement papers. He told us he always thought society would better itself eventually. But to his horror, it got worse and more violent.

[@J.DeLaPoer]

Ah, the pre-militarization days when cops carried .38 revolvers and wore normal uniforms.... Anyway much of this is still good, viable advice today -- even hip shooting (or what with pistols we called "point shooting") is just as effective as aimed fire at close range, and significantly faster and more "natural" feeling. I myself learned the "FBI crouch" pistol stance back in the day.

[@hedgeearthridge6807]

Pistols were not part of the "militarization". Not even rifles were. Semi-auto pistols made revolvers obsolete for this purpose, it's a technological advancement. See: the Miami-Dade Shootout. Rifles like the AR-15 made the shotgun obsolete due to it's greater capacity, penetration, ranged effectiveness, and ability to pierce soft body armor. See: the North Hollywood Shootout. The military uses semi-auto pistols and AR-15 platform rifles because again, revolvers, battle rifles, and shotguns are obsolete for main combat use. I have one rule in my mind for this, Law Enforcement should not have access to weapons the public can't access, they should not be better armed than the people they are over. California cops should have the same 10 round mags and shitty rifle requirements as the citizens do.

[@J.DeLaPoer]

@@hedgeearthridge6807 Yes I'm aware of all you're saying; that's why I mentioned the revolvers separately. Actually most departments kept revolvers long past the point of obsolescence (in the sense of semis being objectively superior in firepower, speed, and having long ironed out any reliability issues that turned police off of them in the early era). The AR however I will disagree with, as far as having made shotguns obsolete. Shotguns are not obsolete by any stretch of the imagination, whether it's civilian, law enforcement or military you're talking about. They simply do things rifles don't/can't, and are used as the situation calls for. They have their place just as rifles do. They're arguably of more effective use (and safer as far as bystanders) in most urban environments due to their ability to utilize all manner of loads from slugs to beanbags; have immense stopping power, can serve as breaching implements, and will not overpenetrate through walls/doors etc. like rifles will. Assuming appropriate loads are used as per situational requirement of course. And note I'm speaking from a policing perspective here; obviously nobody is advocating to replace assault rifles with shotguns... Both have their place. IMO a good modern shotgun is a viable main weapon in most urban policing situations (always plus sidearm). In military use it falls naturally into a specialist role in most theaters. Anyway re: police militarization I'm specifically talking about a conglomeration of factors that resulted in a massive transformation of most police forces from the era seen this video, to that which we've had since the 1990s or so. At that point the 'war on drugs' was ramping up and after high profile shootouts (The North Hollywood comes to mind as well) all the sudden there was huge money in police budgets... So: The change to the "SWAT" look that even most beat cops have shifted to eg; all black tactical gear and combat armor replacing standard uniforms -- and that all valued as much for it's intimidation factor as any practical use. Also the routine issuing of selectfire assault rifles and SMGs (even HE grenades depending on department and district), and the so called "tanks" (armored tactical vehicles like the Bearcat -- which mind you may as well be tanks as far as their being impervious to most small arms and being able to smash through fences, walls, houses, etc). There too, such vehicles and armaments are valued as much or more for their intimidation factor against the public than any practical use. Then there's the change in training and tactics, which again saw a massive shift away from community focus, de-escalation, etc and again toward a military standard which comes out not just in how officers deal with criminals and violent situations, but also in how they deal with innocent people or minor issues. Now you combine that with the pronounced "Us vs. Them" mindset and adversarial approach taken to most civilian interaction, and overall cumulative effect is militarization..... The goal being intimidation by show of force; and ensuring they massively outgun and overpower any resistance the public may put up. This has the secondary effect of psychologically reinforcing the military nature and "us vs. them" mentality of police, and makes most civilians afraid to assert their rights or push back on illegal/unethical police behavior. But I digress... I absolutely agree though that civilians should have access to the same weapons police, and indeed the military, use. And the reverse: If we're limited to magazine limits and other nonsense, the police should have to abide by the same. The founding fathers were explicitly clear (if the 2A wasn't clear enough as is) that _the main, primary purpose of civilian gun ownership was NOT hunting or self defense or sport... But to be equally well armed to fight alongside our standing army. Or to fight effectively _*_against_*_ them if need be, and by extension to remove a tyrannical government from power._ Civilians owning military weapons was the express intent from day one, despite what the antis will say. Anyone who doubts me should start with the Federalist Papers and continue reading the rest of the founders' writings for very clear instructions and intent on gun ownership and the power/obligations of the people in this Republic.

I would prefer the officers have armor, look at newhall, those officers would’ve lived if they had armor (well most of them anyway, one was shot in the head) and they were outgunned due to their opponents having semis and the officers only having revolvers (one had a shotgun they never managed to fire before dying)
