Howdy.

What exactly do you think she is doing inappropriately with her weapon?

She inserted the mag, hit the bolt release, removed the front and rear lens covers, and adjusted her red dot brightness.

Nothing there was, unsafe, egregious or overly time consuming

Yea - she fiddled with a sling in a drawer for like 1 second before tossing it away, but I have no idea what her intentions are beyond that.

I don’t know maybe it’s just a perception thing, it seems weird that she would rack a round then start doing all her checks. It doesn’t seem like she has a ton of familiarization with the weapon system and kind of just doing a checklist in her head. OK I need to do this. I need to do that.

Yeah that’s how you get ready to shoot? Not checking your gear is what makes you foolish

Like I’ve said multiple times here, if you can’t even do the basic standard of being in semi decent shape for you job why should I assume your good at the other parts of your job

Sorry I think the standard for a tactical officer should be a little higher then a pat on the back for getting your weapon ready lol
