Can I modify my duty weapon?

OP,

If your serious about a LEO career don't even ask this question. Just listen and learn from others.

I hope your background investigator reads this because last thing we (LE) need is another liability in a uniform.

I know exactly that has happened a while back. An applicant posted some stuff in Calguns posts, and his background investigator read his posts. The applicant was disqualified based on the posts. The department saw him as a liability, and they could not take a chance.

I spoke to the background investigator personally, so I know this as a fact.

I wish this guy told us the dept. he was applying for. I would love to show this thread to his BI.

Knowing my luck, it will be my department and I will be stuck supervising him.

Why cause you think its a joke. It's a ****ing question. ****. If you most know its LAPD or CHP

I'll humor you and answer your question. If you are so fortunate to actually get hired and make it through the academy with the CHP, you only have the option to carry the dept. issued S&W 4006tsw in its stock condition, other than adding a light if you want.

How does the BG investigator find or locate said applicant?

[johnnycharro]

Background investigator will ask applicant for all social media sites used and screen names. Applicant can lie, but will be disqualified if found out.

I apologize to my predecessors on behalf of my generation.

I like how you slid the fact you are/were in the Marines into the thread...as if we're supposed to take you seriously. You're acting like you didn't surpass the rank of shady Lance Corporal. .

Haha yeah. Reminds me of a stellar young Marine I met. While pulling him over I saw him wave his USMC CAC card out the window, (apparently, it "worked" last time he got stopped). While talking, I asked him what rank he was. He said, "well I WAS Lance Corporal". His ID said he was now an E1.

My partner (a combat E6 Navy SeeBee vet) and I (an Army E6 vet) just looked at each other and lost it.

No one GAF if you are/were a Marine/Soldier. Odds are really good you are being pulled over by a vet.

Well, I am being entertained, and I have yet to read through page 2.

Well at least you have a mature response which shows how cool headed you are. Just because you were/are a marine and you can shoot real fancy like, doesn't mean you are going to be a good police officer. It also doesn't mean that everyone is automatically going to respect you in the law enforcement world. With an attitude like that, you are likely to get eaten alive. Sure we have some marines and other military guys at my department, and they are quite good at what they do, but they also have very humble and respectful attitudes. This job is a lot more than just driving around in a black and white race car with an ultra cool "non civilian" gun. I was almost hoping this thread was a troll, it might have actually been somewhat entertaining...............

...here ya go...these are the mods and techniques needed!

One F-bomb in the start of the vid...depending on your squad, but probably SFW



(Note : The designates an armorer joke, do not go to your range staff with any of this stuff...for reals...being super serious... )

I don't know exactly how, but I guess they have ways to find out about it. I will leave it at that.

10-4, if their is a will, there is a way.

Thank you all for the laughs especially you op! Op here is some advice for you, do us all a favor and just keep it at playing GTA and watching cops from your mom's basement while eating meatloaf.

I'm sure they have special easy access to IP addresses and special privileges for searching those IP addresses at lots of different social media sites and search engines. It's all for the public good after all.
