    How often do you go to the range?

    Just wondering how often, as a professional LEO, you go to the range to keep up your proficiency?

        I was at least weekly for many years. Often more so. Now that I am out I try to shoot whatever defensive pistol I'm using once a month or so, and I am out at the trap club busting clays two to three weekends a month.

          Daily when I'm running the range. It's good having the keys to all the guns and ammo! When the range isn't going I rarely shoot on my own time. But range is usually 6weeks at a time, and we do it every quarter so that's good for me!

            Once a month. More if I can get the time to get away.

              once a week is the usual. I will go crazy if I don't shoot at least once a week.

              O forgot to add I am not a LEO.

                  At least once a week, but I'm a "gun guy" as I suspect most here are. If you were to survey all LEOs (not just those on a gun forum), you would find that most cops rarely shoot other than at department quals.

                    Every month. Different stages. Different tactics. Pistol & Carbine. Same cadre of weapons.

                        I get to shoot about once a month right now...would like to do more and once I'm done moving and reorganizing, I'll be doing more than that.

                          There should have been an option for "Not enough". I am guilty of this.

                          He is an anti-gun guy and he said. "Well, you can't eat ammunition". I replied with "When I'm starving to death with a case of ammunition, who's door do you think I am going to knock on?"

                              Every 4 to 6 weeks for pistol. Only 3 to 6 months for rifle and shotgun. I'm limited by the availability of ranges for rifle/shotgun.
