Really liked the high standard of this qual.
100% required.
Good for you and your .38 to perform at that level, Howard;
Good for the state of CO to require their LEOs to be only but perfect in their shooting skill.
Using a firearm to protect the public is a serious consideration...glad to see such demanding requirements.

Between "planes, trains and automobiles" to getting a sunburned noggin to literally shredding the target at the end, this has to be the best one yet!
Quite the range of challenges, and, even though the target was generous, a 100% hit rate to qualify could put a number of LEOs on edge, I'd think.
Can't wait to see #10 and hear your assessment of which is the best out of the first group!
Awesome work, Howard!

Re: 38 Super 1911 vs. Colorado LEO Qualification
The .38 super is a very accurate round, and in the hands of a "shooter" can't be beat. Nice job Howard, plus an interesting course.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

Thank you! I really like the 38 Super. It has ballistics approaching low-end .357 Magnums, but with much more managable recoil in a pistol like the 1911.BrokenolMarine wrote: ↑Sat Jun 22, 2019 10:38 pmThe .38 super is a very accurate round, and in the hands of a "shooter" can't be beat.
