One of the guys at the PD had a real "DOH!" moment a wek ago. We were at the range to sight in the PD supplied Bushy M4 type carbine that Chiefy Warbucks purchsed for him. He's the "team leader" for our new tac-team.
Anyway, he didn't really listen to the recommendations that HE asked for before ordering the rifles. Anyway, he bought two off the rack rifles from a local dealer. They had the Izzy hider on them, the one with three ports at 9-12-3. We were shooting side by side. My rifle, as you can see from the above pics on previous pages has a mil-spec A2 hider. It gets dark, we do a night shoot. He has a HUGE fireball from his "flash-hider". Nothing but a tiny kernel out of mine. At first, he's convinced it's the ammo. So, I change mags with him, same results. Now, he's pissed because the ploom is so huge it interferes with his sight picture. hilarious.

I always wondered about that... I have the Vortex on mine and have yet to shoot it in the dark. I have heard (and read) that it does help ALOT with flash. Go figure that the "upper echelon" doesn't listen!

How does the Matech work for you? I have never used one. Actually I have never seen one in person. Is it issued, or user supplied? |

I see several guns without a light mounted. Is that by choice, policy, or budget?
I say that because I'm sure most of these are personally owned rifles.

Hey Lancelot! I spoke with you a bit back about adding a light to mine. Although the Dept. tells me "You will be perimeter, you don't really need a light", I just feel weird not having one on there "in case". I was looking into the route you and I talked about before (PentagonLight, yada yada yada), but recently came across a suh-weet deal for a Surefire (of which I NEVER thought I would own) and am patiently (well, not really) waiting for this. I will post an updated pic of it, of course! |

I'm not sure why they didn't give us a light when the rifle was issued, I was just told they were ordered (M3's) along with a soft case and sling. It took about a year to get the rifle so I won't complain if the rest takes a few months to be issued. |

Bushmaster Dissipator. Only addition is a white light and a spare mag on the stock. I don't believe in a lot of bells and whistles.

In evidence? Did you have to use it in the line of duty?

Well two thoughts. You needed it, and it was there when you needed it. This also points out the value to having a second rifle on tap if its needed. |

take your pick. These are 2 of the many AR's I have. These are the only 2 I've qualified with. People ask why qualify with 2. Cause one I take on the boat in saltwater has a stainless barrel and the other's chrome lined.

Sorry for the late reply (hard at work, then went on a ski trip). Yes, is a TD. I like it a lot. Keeps 2 spares for the light in it, and the feel is OK for me. No complaints. I worked with it enough to not notice it, and that says alot to me. I like it better than the Ergos and Magpuls, but that's personal preference. |

What are those things I keep seeing in the pictures that look like a TV Screen and some kind of keyboard?  One of these days my department will get into the late 20th Century.

MDTs (Mobile Data Terminals). Used to dispatch calls, run DMV/DCI/NCIC for drivers licenses, license plates, wants/warrants, maps, AVL (Automated Vehicle Locator Mapping - GPS mapping system for dispatching and safety). Our Dept. got most of ours (we are a 225 Officer PD) from Federal grants. They are a Godsend (when they work)...
