I can see this too. Honestly I'd probably be more efficient with my g35 than a revolver I haven't trained on for more than a couple of months. I haven't even seen the instructor qualification course of fire yet though, and everyone I've talked to so far is making me nervous about it.
JR, anyone can score 120's all day long on the regular POST course if they have even a modicum of training and are paying attention. The normal POST course is a joke.
You guys sure are feisty about this topic, I just wanted to know what types of revolvers everyone uses when they shoot the course.
ETA: I probably shouldn't say 120's all day long, everyone makes mistakes. I'll say the cutoff should be more like 115. First time I shot it, I had never seen it before and was flat out embarrassed to turn in a 117 target.
We're trying to make you understand that shooting this course with a revolver when you carry a semi-auto is not a good idea. Consistency.
People fail to qualify all the time. I've worked at 2 very large departments and it's a common occurrence. It's a joke to us because we shoot, it's a nightmare to others. Shooting good is only half of the ingredients to be a good instructor. You also have to have the maturity, experience, and patience to teach the ones who need their skills brought up to a higher level.
