I am aware of the generall validity of your statements, under most circumstances, and will answer/clarify with the following-
1- If I go with the Cobray, then I will be very damn familliar with it, and if it during the thousand or so rounds I will put through it before I get it near a job, shows any tendency towards unreliability, then it will be replaced/dropped from the active roster
i asked peoples advice on whether it would be a waste of money in the first place, given that I only know personally one person who has one...
2- the only time that we will be brandish any weapon is during a high risk pickup- this will not be an everyday thing, rather a very rare thing- we are likely talking about 1 in 100 hopefully less- further note that the person leading this team (not myself) is a certified law enforcement trainer and pistol instructor in the state we are operating in, and that we are taking this agressive stance on the advice of the city and county officers that work the areas that we plan to do this in- normally, I would agree with you, but in a really bad situation, I will have a weapon out and ready if I need it- and I would rather point it at someone and not have to then shoot them, than to have to pull it and drop them..... plus, if it is out, then I will not have to waste the seconds that it would take to pull it.......I reiterate, this WILL NOT BE NORMAL OPERATING PROCEEDURE, and on anything but an extreme risk situation will not be an option.......... I do value your advice and thank you for stating it, but felt the need to clarify the situation.....
