Gosh, an interesting notion. But is there any difference between you and an FBI HRT agent?

[1] An FBI HRT agent
  1. He's first of all an FBI agent. That means he has passed a rigorous pre-employment screening, including an in-depth psychological evaluation and an intensive background investigation. He has also completed rigorous training.
  2. To get on the HRT the FBI agent has to pass another screening.
  3. The HRT recruit undergoes and must successfully complete a rigorous training program
  4. HRT agents train regularly as a team
  5. The HRT is tasked with special assignments generally of a para-military nature.
  6. The HRT agent operates under quasi-military discipline and a quasi-military chain of command exercising strict authority over his actions and to which chain of command he is answerable.

[2] You

?

I don't mean to denigrate you. My point is that defending the disabling of a safety device on a pistol by pointing out that some elite police or military organization does it, can seriously backfire. It invites the comparison, and most of us are going to suffer in the comparison.
