I am in the Private Security Industry. I work in a hospital, so there is much non-violent crisis intervention training, and other such policies. Normally we prefer Armed Security Officer as opposed to "flashlight cop, rent-a-pig, and the myriad of other <normally colorful> names we are called. I am 30 years old, 'Live in Houston, Texas. The only firearms I own are the ones I use on duty which are the Springfield 1911 G.I. .45 <modified>, a Ruger Gp100 .357 <stock>, an Ithaca 37 12ga, and a .22 cal rifle <for the kiddies>. I am highly interested in tactics and training i seem to be collecting certificates atm. The U.S. Army sent me a letter with hope I would re-enlist, but I am not too sure if i am all too willing at this point of my life. All that is still in the air. I have 3 sons, all of which compete with each other in rifle marksmanship with their .22on a monthly basis. 'Married <sorry ladies, i'm spoken for> The misses is seemingly as interested in firearms for self defense as I. There are several things I would like to train into her...like looking both ways before crossing the street
, But seriously she does need to work on alertness, maybe she's just not as "paranoid" as I. Because They are out to get us...really
