Isn't it funny how P.D.'s are afraid of changing things to better their people. It is no different in my neck of the woods, it became so bad that after 13 years as an instructor locally, police academy and State certified I resigned and I am much happier now. Most of the LEO instructors think that they are the best in the world, when really they are second rate. When I first started competing I noticed a bad trend with LEO's shooting in competion. The LEO's would come and shoot, have their heads handed to them and then never come back again to try and get better. When I first started I got my butt kicked also, we all do, but I percervered and after 7 years I have won the Police Pistol Combat State Championships 3 times in a row and Governor's "20" back to back. LEO's REALLY need to get over their ego. Sorry for the rant.
