NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.

I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.

My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.

Skill Set: "Mil-Spec" : The Tactical Wire

There's a larger lesson behind this also:  don't screw with a firearm unless you really know what you are doing.  Don't fall victim to the Brown Paper Bag Syndrome, though now it may be the Plastic Grocery Sack Effect, though those tear pretty easily.  Both of these involve taking an improperly disassembled weapon to an agency armorer or gunsmith to reassemble, and then undo the damage you've done in your attempts to "improve" it.  It's also good evidence of a policy violation, as many agencies don't want you diddling their guns.

It occurred to me the other day that you can make a GLOCK using absolutely no actual parts from GLOCK.  Same way with ARs and 1911s, you don't need a single Colt part to build their guns.
