@GabeLakmann I always thought it was funny how often ‘force on force’ training resulted in lean, adrenaline-soaked paintball kids BTFO’ing the well trained, fresh off a rifle course SWAT fats.
When I was working at the range we’d sometimes get the invite to fill in and play with the guys, and about 70-80% of the time the cops would ask us to “be less aggressive” because the young dudes would just lay down fire + sprint to flank them, then chew them up as they hunkered down where they were.
TBF they were often too chunky to use cover effectively, and they hated running, which, when you’re up against highly mobile dudes in their teens/twenties given a free ticket to pepper cops with simunitions……not gonna have a great time
How is THAT for a controversial take?
