If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios. Program one for here and one for there. If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach. -
Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy. Spray and pray? I think not. These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving. If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds. The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less. The closest cover are those concrete flower pots. If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond? Agree 100%. However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week. There are bystanders and traffic in every direction. The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made. The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting. The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed. NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
