>>28671610

Not anyone that's posted in this thread.

I was a full time active duty 0311 that EAS'd in 2010.

I'd say the reservist anon is definitely an legitimate rifleman, just a reservist so definitely under trained compared to full time counterparts. That's all active duty 03's do, train and deploy.

I think the assertion was reservist will mention they are infantry more often into conversations. Which might be true I dunno.

I only ever say I was a Marine unless mentioning I was an infantryman is relevant to the conversation.

Maybe it was relevant or not, probably was. I'd assume pog reservist show up for drill and drive a desk. He probably means his MOS gets a little more weapons time.

Guys, as much as I hate to say it, don't panic buy. While I love selling guns and helping people out, having people come in and just buy shit because something happened and not because you chose to is a pretty bad mindset.
People constantly want Glock 19s and they come back saying "Oh, it's an ok gun." Or "Oh, the trigger kind of sucks."

At the risk of derailing this fine thread, I've got two questions for you, anon:
1) What are some common annoyances customers do that drive you nucking futs?
2) What are some things the average /k/omrade can do to be a chill customer you like having around?
>>
>>28674726
1) Sometimes people come in and just look at stuff or touch stuff without even striking up a conversation. I'm fine with people not buying anything, but please don't be a mute about it. The second thing that bothers me is people who either know nothing about guns or think they know everything. I get it, but you're not impressing anyone. Can't we just learn together and talk about guns without dick waving? Lastly, these are people that annoy me the most, are the ones who reach behind our Do Not Cross line to help themselves to the .22s. Dude, just ask and I'll show it to you- there's a reason it's behind the counter. Don't do that.

2) You don't have to do much aside from coming in and acting like a normal person. Come in, ask questions, ask us if we can order something for you, let's chat it up about any gun you want. Just be patient if it's busy. I'm a bit odd amongst the older guys in the shop because I like talking to people. But that's just me.

I'm a probation / parole officer. I carry a gun and wear armor every day. On rare occasions I do get to kick in a door and drag somebody out of their house in cuffs, which breaks up the monotony. I work closely with local cops because having a ppo present allows you to circumvent the need for a warrant. I lead a lot of searches and recover a lot of drugs on them, so it helps me feel operator.

It is a good job and not hard if you have a decent personality for it. I like that I can drive around for hours on slow days and I can make my own schedule. Very low stress, so long as you aren't intimidated or don't mind speaking in front of crowds, attorneys, and judges. Most offenders are perfectly respectful because they want you to treat them leniently, and the ones who give you attitude are either going to get into something stupid and you can rearrest them, or they will just stay off the radar completely.

I haven't been doing it much more than a year and was planning on using it as a stepping stone to a state investigator job, but now I am unsure. The job is generally super chill and my supervisors are great. I could make more in other agencies, but this job is actually really pleasant, way more so than I expected.

>>
>>28678987
No honestly not. You don't need it to get a job it's just our firm specifically draws a higher number of combat vets. There are other firms that just want guys with are mil background, even if you were are cook they will take you. Granted, our firm has pretty much cornered the market here but again you do not need combat experience to work in the industry, it Arellano depends on the hiring firm.

Judging by your comment you're not stable enough to own guns.

In my state we have several months of shadowing an officer, then a basic school of 6 to 7 weeks. You do have to Qual with a weapon twice, do night shoots, very silly hand to hand training, and all that. Get sprayed with OC as well. But they are pretty candid that most training comes on the job, and there is regular in service training and qualifications once on the job.

In my state (NC) the basic academy is held at the state justice academy, where they train everyone from our investigative agencies to fish and game to license and theft and also prison guards. It Is a pretty nice facility and the time there is not unpleasant, although a little boring. Our regimen was super chill- we could wear plainclothes and had to carry a blue gun, but didn't have the structure of prison guard stuff, or the relatively intensive PT of some other agencies.

It is a sworn position in NC (not all states give probation officers the same authority) and you have full arrest authority. Department policy is that we very rarely execute that authority outside of offenders, though. The logic they told us was that it encourages us to hand off shit we don't want or that goes beyond our purview to local cops. I walk in on domestic situations all the fucking time, I am NOT getting caught up in that shit but will instead call the sheriff or police over the radio. By the same token most people don't know what the role of a probation officer is, and when they see a guy dressed up like a swat team member (for field work we have to wear our full safety package) they make a reasonable assumption that that person is a cop, and will ask you to check into this or arrest this and that or go shoot a dog.

I personally don't really consider it a LEO position but I guess it is... I carry a badge and arrest people. It is a very chill job 99% of the time, though, and you can avoid almost all of the excitement if you want to. I get LE preferential pricing and whatnot, which is a nice perk.

I get to go to SHOT and talk hype everyone up on pending new arrivals as im finger fucking them. and sit back and take orders as riots occur. (i wish i had the oakland PD acct, that fucker makes bank) and watch the phones non stop ring after every shooting (especially after the Obama tear). Ask away.

One of these days ... I will shoot a escape offender.
>>
I'm a commercial photographer and have done a bunch of stuff for gun and tactical gear ads/catalogs and also for airshit companies.

It's actually really fun to shoot this kind of stuff, not only is it like being a kid playing with giant human GI Joes, but it also lets you do all kinds of cool moody lighting and processing that most gigs don't involve. I get a decent amount of work too, because I actually know enough about firearms and military stuff that I can do authentic-looking photos and won't make stupid mistakes, and also because the vast majority of photogs are antigunners.

I wish I could share some stuff but most of the rights are owned by clients, and a lot of companies know about /k/ and wouldn't be happy to know I post here.

Yep that's a prison guard

Just kidding, most of the guards here are cool dudes, but the women always are total b itches and shriek at us while we're waiting to talk to the magistrate. The women are always the fucking rejects who can't do anything with a public face at the sheriff's dept, so they put them in the jail and they yell at all the male officers. I fucking hate them and try to go to the jail during second shift to avoid them because big fucking surprise, the women only want to work day shift.

Lol. I always want to do an AMA or at least post a thread about it, but there's so little we're actually allowed to talk about, and so much that's Safeguards Information that it'd be pointless.

Since we no longer have them , I can tell you that at one point we carried Smith Model 66s with a few speedloaders and Remington 870s.

It must have been badass to operate there in the 80s and 90s with that loadout lol. Yah I know what you mean about the whole OPSEC thing. A good friend of mine is in the same line of work and every time I ask he just baits me with cryptic answers
>>
>>28681138
I want to work for you after I finish my enlistment.
>>
>>28681417
Pretty much. It kinda sucks, but pretty much anything related to security, events, plant systems, etc.

I've seen pictures of our guys doing force on force back when they had that loadout, coupled with the dress-y uniform and it looks kinda awesome.
>>
>>28681069
Nah. I actually don't put my name on most of the defense stuff I do, it scares off other clients.
>>
>>28681098

Yea I work second shift due to that and the .50 difference a hour. There's like 2 women I work with that are fucking fantastic the rest are a hassle and prison candy. It got worse when we started to recruit 18 year Olds. Fucking extra work majority of them and most of them don't understand the simple thing of "don't act like your shit , treat everyone with respect to earn it , and don't give frivolous DRs".

>>28681110

Still sad i can keep up with the vets in the place and out run others.
