      Indianapolis Museum of Art: No go. Metal detectors

      I have one that was described by the maker as G10 and it has not been detected with handheld or walk through detectors. Best way to find out is a "trial run" when you don't really care about being denied entry if it sets off a detector. Obviously, I am referring to a trial run in a location...

      Indianapolis Museum of Art: No go. Metal detectors

      Correct. Some of the ones marketed as "non-metallic" will still set off the metal detector. Fortunately the ones I carry have passed multiple venues with no detection :):

      Indianapolis Museum of Art: No go. Metal detectors

      I have a few non metallic knives for places like this, if you know their policy ahead of time of course.

      Indiana churches set up security teams after law changes to allow guns in church

      You will definitely need the church leaders on board, and at some point you will want to have the congregation on board. One way to is to approach "security" training as just one piece of the churches overall safety and preparedness training. Maybe start out with first aid/aed training, then add...

      Church security, is everyone an expert?

      In my opinion, no. Firearms training is only one piece of church security, and not even one all churches will agree to. I have worked with churches who take security & training very seriously. They have multiple armed team members, comms, cameras, trauma first aid kits, sop's, emergency & ecav...

      Yet another Pepper Spray Thread.

      I have not had a chance to test this, but a guy that I know who works with an organization called Forever Your Overwatch Foundation recommends these. https://fyofoundation.org/product/smart-pepper-spray/?fbclid=IwAR2xqoIrckkB--kDI5_saZpXSRUgjvTJKoPcn89aD6GrI2VkAzDSxv5V2s4

      50 yard CCW shooting.

      Can you, yes. Should you? It depends on the totality of the circumstances. Either way, training from longer distances will only help your shooting. I have taken our officers back to 100 yards with their duty handguns many times. It takes a little bit to get used to, but once they do it really...

      GA: Tueller drill in real life

      Lots of good points already made. I will say the willingness to shoot has to be thought about well before the time comes. That goes for anyone who carries a firearm for protection, not just law enforcement. My gut tells me the officer doing the talking had not come to grips with that reality...

      AAR Sage Dynamics RDS Handgun Instructor, May 21-23, 2019, MTAC, Muncie, IN

      "... I no longer go to classes expecting to gain a ton of new stuff. For the most part, I go in hoping to gain one or two “nuggets” that will improve what I have already heard from others, or discovered through pure, dumb luck." Very important! At some point you should no longer be getting...

      Partially serrated blade or plain edge?

      My EDC folder is also a back up weapon, so it's without serrations for me. It's a deal breaker for me to buy, but I do have partially serrated folders that were gifts.

      1 & 2 Person Movement In Structures

      A small portion will cover use of a flashlight. However, the majority of the class is devoted to working in movement in lighted and/or semi-lighted structures. If there is enough interest, we will do a follow up and can add more low light material. Jeff
