Hello all, first time user, poster, or whatever I should call myself here. I am looking for information concerning a minumum number of rounds that officers should fire annually in training. Is there a national or state (TX) standards? I am the lead firearms instructor for my agency and am trying to make some improvements to our training program. If anyone knows of such a standard or has any written info to back up a certain amount, I would be greatly interested. If anyone has fought this battle with their agency and won already, please reply so I can learn from your efforts. While I am sure my agency is not unique in this regard, the biggest obstacle is the money.
I would also be interested in opinions about should officers have to qualify with every weapon they would carry (on or off duty) if it is the same operating system (1911, Glock, etc). I feel that they should but wanted to see if there was a majority out there.
I really enjoy this forum and think it is an excellent idea.
Thanks in advance.
