Most cops are not even good shots, some barely qualify. I know some personally who don’t even take proper care of their weapons (cleaning etc). I think I would trust my own Glock more than a police issued weapon, and yes most guys at the range can easily shoot better .BUT, that’s AT paper. You still need proper training for a real life situation. Anyone that has practiced at the range, and then gone deer hunting only to get Buck fever just before clicking the safety off will know what I mean (legs tremble ,jaws rattle, sometimes entire body shivers). Taking a HUMAN life even a Scumbag like Cho, is not as easy as u might think, most people don’t have the steel for it, again, without proper training.
Reason I am saying this, a Burglar or a mugger etc wants to stay alive, so you only wave the gun at him, and dial 911 with the other hand. This guy you would have to dispatch with extreme prejudice without any hesitation or he would put your lights out instead. But then who really knows, he did off himself before the cops got to him, so he might have done the same facing an armed student.
