Maggie’s British police and firearms

This is an incident currently happening over here. But you have to check out the picture illustrating the story.

Ignore the text, we don't get many armed incidents over here, so people get excited and spout crap, but a picture speaks a thousand words. All out armed police are specifically trained in the specialist role. This training clearly doesn't extend to muzzle awareness.

Its not pointed at his head. Its the angle of the camera. It messes with the viewer's depth perception of the image.

I know, but at a glance it looks pretty poor. I guess he's slinging it which it why he's looking down as if looking down the muzzle. A crappy phone pic doesn't help.

Nice.

Looks like it may be a black sports bottle more than a firearm.

I lived in hucknall for a bit. Strange place. Did you know they drive on the left side of the road as well? They just can't seem to get things right. Everything truly is backwards

Cool looking gun. I'd want to check it out too, I just don't think waiving it around pointed over my left shoulder in public is the way to do it!

I was up at the Otterburn ranges the day after the Northumbrian Police were up with their Gatling Gun. 25,000 rounds and a range officer driven to distraction. They should not be allowed out ....
