THIS is nothing. You would not believe how poorly trained all of their agents are. I've dealt with them.

THIS is nothing. Most poorly trained agents I have ever seen. If they showed up on my range - I would leave.

Like FBI agent Chase Bishop, off-duty, dancing and doing a back-flip when his pistol fell out of his waistband and ended up shooting someone in the leg.

I'd leave the range too if they showed up.

The worst thing is they have these weapons anytime of the day, are out in public, and we're supposed to believe they're the best.

At a local festival years ago, they had an exhibit with all their gear, including boats, rebreather scuba, a cigarette boat, assorted novelties and bravado not to be ignored. I wasn't impressed, felt a little embarrassed for them, and remembered how they had lost millions in drug deals. Otherwise, they added millions to the cartel's bottom dollar with taxpayer money.

Seen the same at some local shows here, outdoors, held at parks. What I saw was a whole lotta taxpayer $$$ being spent on some really high-end stuff, much of it I imagine will never be used or will soon be obsolete, junked and more $$ spent on the newest versions.

He sure does. At least the barrel is pointed at the right area. :)
