Guns, guns and more guns.

If you like guns then you're in the right place.  I share a common interest with so many Americans that love things that go "boom"... guns.  The 2nd amendment provides all Americans the right to bear arms, but I'm not going to preach right or wrong or political views on the 2nd.  I am, however, going to fill this blog with my personal opinion.

Obviously, being a cop, I carry a gun.  If I wasn't an officer I'd still carry a gun.  In today's world violent acts against humanity are continually growing more frequent; I can't even turn on the news without seeing stories about violent crimes.  I also see the darker side of society, and trust me it's there.  You can be as naive as you want to be, but it's still there.  

I will not discuss professional stories with this blog because everyone deserves the same amount of respect, but I will reference personal experiences as they come along.

I'll start with this:

I began shooting at the age of 18 when I joined the army.  Like all Army I began shooting the M16.  I quickly moved on to LMG's  (light machine gun) and HMG's (heavy machine gun).  I have shot most personal and squad based weapons that the Army had to offer and I was sent to basic armorer school where I learned to work on and maintain military weapons.  I left the Army to join the police and started my pistol and shotgun training.  I'm still working on fundamentals, but as a shooter you always have to work on fundamentals.

As far as civilian weapons go, I'm still fairly inexperienced.  As I continue to expand my knowledge I plan to write it down and share with anyone who cares to read.

So I leave you with that.  -M. C.
