Re: ...and the safety is on too!
In police and military training, it has been shown that if you teach the safety, safety and safety without regard to real life, to your people, they will do as they have been taught. I have heard this story several times, that in the 60's and 70's so many police officers were taught to pick up their brass from their revolvers during firearm training, that out of habit several did that in real life situations, and were shot or had near misses. Because of this, we (the good NCO's I hope) always tried to instill in our troopies that what they did at the range would be what they would do in real life. Maybe the guy in the picture always put the safety on, I know that it would be easy to foget. But in combat, I bet you wouldn't forget very many times!
