"Jimmy, I know you don't have police training, but you're very smart, and you have to make yourself look more professional as soon as possible. Pay attention, how much does your equipment differ from mine? ”

Jimmy scratched his head a little, the police wearable equipment was uniformly trained during the training at the police academy, and he did have a lot of deficiencies based on his previous observations.

A pen in the left breast pocket, a handcuff key, a small notepad, a walkie-talkie microphone on the chest, and a walkie-talkie headset hanging from the collar, which has not yet been connected to the walkie-talkie. There was an extra pepper spray, a flashlight, and only a pair of handcuffs on the duty belt. There was a leg hanger on the right leg, which also held a gun.

Jimmy talked about the gaps, and Noah nodded first, then shook his head, "You're missing one, body armor." Noah unbuttoned his coat and leaked a soft body armor, "Your biggest problem is that you don't wear body armor, this is the United States, we have to encounter all kinds of different situations every day, body armor is our most important protective equipment." When you get back, get one. ”

"You've been doing AP for a few months, not to mention the law and first aid, you should all understand, what you need most now is to make up for the use of firearms and driving skills, James has already told me, you patrol with me later, but you have to spend 2 hours a day to go to the shooting range to practice firearms, and then a week later add an extra 1 hour a day to drive a car, you need to buy a car."

Noah opened the trunk of the police car and opened the two bags, which contained various specifications of lists and equipment. "Here are the tickets we need on a daily basis, as for the content, you can learn about it separately later. Let's take a look here, shotgun and M16 carbine, choose one of the two, next time you remember to get it, I brought it for you in advance today, I recommend you use a shotgun. ”

Noah introduced various equipment, including a tire breaker, closed the trunk, and walked back to the driver's seat of the police car. "I'll take you on patrol first, and then we'll go to the bear hunter shooting range in the afternoon."

"Okay. Thanks, Noah. ”

Noah starts the police car, turns on the car radio, connects to the police network, and starts patrolling.

"Jimmy, don't you think these things are necessary? You may not know that 3 years ago, there was a bank robbery in Los Angeles, 2 robbers fought against more than 300 policemen, fought for more than 40 minutes before they were killed, 12 police officers were injured, and countless police cars were damaged, and the two robbers used automatic rifles and wore heavy body armor. Since then, we've been working hard to increase our firepower and body armor. For those bandits in body armor, our pistols have no advantage at all, and this is when it is time to use carbines and shotguns, and body armor minimizes casualties. Be sure to remember what I say clearly, it may save your life. ”

"Police is a dangerous job, and dozens of police officers die in shootouts every year across the United States, and no one can guarantee that they are not one of these unlucky people. So you have to make sure that you take a body armor before you go to the police, it's winter and you can wear it inside, and in the summer, you have to wear body armor outside. As long as you are in attendance, you can't take it off, no matter how hot it is. These are not rules, but they can save lives. ”

Noah explains to Jimmy while driving on patrol and waiting for him to be contacted by radio.

Adam47, Robbery Convenience Store, 1106 Fairpark Ave. The police said the robbers had fled. ”

"Adam47 ROGGING."

Noah turned on the police lights and sirens and rushed to the convenience store, Jimmy felt a little familiar when he heard this address, and when the police car arrived at the place, he found out that this was not the convenience store he came to on the first day? The boss is so unlucky?

The two get out of the car and walk into the convenience store, Noah is asking about the robbery and the loss, and Jimmy is listening carefully, learning how to ask about the case by the way.

At the end of the day, Jimmy casually asked, "Is there a store around here that has a surveillance system?" ”

"No, no one wants to spend that money." The convenience store owner said.

Walking out of the convenience store and returning to the police car, Jimmy is still thinking about this problem, the biggest difference from 20 years later is actually the civilian technology in daily activities, for 2022, which store does not have a monitoring, and even many of them use cloud monitoring, and also save money for configuring their own servers.

In 2000, surveillance was mainly used for large businesses and police, such as hotels, banks, government buildings, traffic cameras, etc., for private shopkeepers, more than less.

In the morning, they patrolled to deal with some simple things, there was no chase, no arrest, not even a fight, Noah felt a little weird, as if it was a special case learning opportunity for Jimmy.

Trivia, the crime rate in American cities began to rise in the 60s, peaked in the 80s, began to decline in the 90s, and the lowest point was in 2019, and the new crown period re-emerged, and it has not yet declined.

In the afternoon, Noah took Jimmy to the bear hunter shooting range, which is the cooperative shooting range of the county police, the police need to often come to practice the use of firearms, although the news I usually watch is that the American police emptied the magazine with more than a dozen shots and did not kill a criminal, as if the marksmanship was very poor, but in fact, the police are very attentive to the use of firearms, and everyone knows their marksmanship and will try to find time to practice. Another point is that the shooting range cooperated by the police will give each police officer a certain amount of free bullets, which will be reimbursed by the police department, and there are also discounts for additional bullets, which are much cheaper than buying bullets yourself. Of course, this is not the practice of all places, and some police stations cooperate with shooting ranges to give some discounts at most.

Noah asked Jimmy to get a few training guns to try the feel, first of all, Beretta 92F, which is also the same model currently issued by the police department, Noah did not let Jimmy use his own matching gun, but used the training gun provided by the shooting range, with 15 rounds of ammunition in a double row, which is a very useful pistol for the police, and the continuous firepower is sufficient.

Noah instructs Jimmy on how to quickly retrieve the gun from the holster, single-handed, dual-handed, safe position, reloading, and most importantly, avoiding the cheat. Novices playing with guns are most likely to make two mistakes that endanger others, one is the golden finger, that is, in the non-shooting state, the finger is placed on the trigger, and the correct one should be placed on the gun outside the trigger to prevent misfire caused by accidentally touching the trigger; The second is to clean the barrel of unfired bullets. In the non-shooting state, do not point the muzzle of the gun at the person, observe the surrounding environment at all times, and point the gun in the hand at the position where there is no one.

Jimmy hit two magazines and replaced the next one, M1911, Springfield Factory, with a magazine of 7 rounds, and also knocked out 2 magazines, Jimmy was already a little sore in his hands, and for someone who fired for the first time, this shot volume was actually a bit large.
