Agreed.
Yea the military doesn’t do shit for MH screening during in-processing. Then you have the command elements being the ones who handle the complaints regarding MH/violence/domestic issues with the most common (worthless) action being “Ok thank you for bringing this to my attention. I’ll have a talk with him.” Then again, if they did actually take MH concerns seriously, then you’d throw fuel on the low recruitment/retention dumpster fire.
Yes, it is sad. This hits too close to home now. Lest we forget that the Saudi's had a hand in 911, but obviously our .gov has forgotten, but then again, it's all about the $$. Mac
Installation commanders can allow carry on base. I know of one that (sort of) does. If you are active/retired LEO, stationed there and have a CCW or a member of the rifle and pistol club with a CCW you may bring a loaded firearm on base, but not take it out of the vehicle, except at the rifle and pistol club. I'll take what I can get. Three years, so far, and no incidents.
I gotta agree with you on the barracks scenario, though.
They can and many do, especially when the MWR range is on base. For those that don’t know: Just register your weapons with the base and you can go on base with them (to the range and home only). Some bases allow you to carry loaded if you’re going into the mountains next to base. Same thing, only to/from mountains and can’t be loaded until you get to the trail.
Most bases don’t acknowledge LEOSA but if you’re does, that’s cool. Yea no issues here and countless trips on base with firearms. ...at the MWR range is a whole other story...and usually more dangerous than a civilian public range lol. Big difference between visiting base to go to the range and allowing service members to carry during the day to day (and night lol).
?
I know of one with almost the exact same rules - anyone with unrestricted base access, including contractors and dependents, with a CCW valid in the state the base is in can have loaded on their person in their cars, and leave in the car while at work. LEOSA has full concealed carry rights on base except for facilities clearly marked no weapons.
No incidents on that base that I am aware of in ~3 years. I wish all military bases were like that.
I don't think active are required to register firearms. The range on base is owned by FSS (MWR to you), but managed by a board of directors. The rules are fairly strict and enforced. Only accident, in modern times, was a couple years back. A retired firearms instruction shot himself in the thigh and calf (one shot). Serpa holster.
All personnel on base, active or dependent, have to register all personal firearms with the base. Personnel living in the barracks can’t store weapons in the barracks and they must either be stored off base or be registered on base and stored in the unit armory (only with commanders approval).
You wanna see some unsafe MWR range shit? Go spend a few hours at the Bragg MWR range lol. As for Serpas, carried one for years and never an ND...but I’m also not complacent and train with it lol.
Every base is different. Right next door, you're required to register. Been to Bragg many times. Visited the range once, but didn't shoot. Felt safer driving down Rifle Range Road.
Few train with a Serpa. I finally banned them at my matches unless disabled. I did learn the Serpa isn't for me. I don't have long fingers and I found my finger doesn't always reach the trigger guard (I forget which model). I tried a number of times and I never tripped the trigger, but my finger would enter the trigger guard. I never had a desire to use one anyway.
Haha definitely.
I’ve since abandoned the serpa for the ALS models and get why people have issues with em...and why NDs happen for many.
?
I saw the video on the UPS...
Their firefight skills are shit! If this is like the rest of teh USA, BOOG is gonna be EASY

They wont count the UPS truck as a mass shooting since 2 of the dead were innocents killed by the police. They shot a bystander in their vehicle, and they shot and killed the UPS driver.
you arent hearing about that on CNN. is full speed ahead with the impeachment fail boat!!!
a Saudi trained terrorist ? .. let's invade Iraq .
.
This is a double edged sword. If we sell them billions in aircraft we pretty much have an obligation to train them.
What we need is to be more suspicious. Less PC. After all we do have valid reasons to be skeptical. Common sense that’s all.
