[QUOTE="rcnich, post: 855802, member: 4193"] First, you take standardized psych test (MMPI). If you're loony, you can't carry a gun. CLEET qualification involves a minimum of 32 hours of classroom and range time, though many departments require many more hours of training. IMO, the more, the better. There's firearms safety, operation, legal and deadly force stuff you must pass. I won't disclose the details of the actual course of fire, cause it may be LE sensitive info. But it involves drawing from holster and shooting within a few seconds at a target that's about 12" x 18" (scoring area) at various distances. Passing score is 72% The rule of thumb we use is that in an actual gunfight, accuracy decreases 30-40%. So if you think a score of 72 is good, you'll most likely be shot or dead in real life. In my organization we train with pistols out to 50 yards; shotguns (with slugs) out to 100 yds. This year, though it wasn't for qualification purposes, we shot pistols at targets from 50, 75 & 100 yards. Most of us were pinging the steel at 100 yds. [/QUOTE]
