I've taken some advanced tactical pistol training from people who teach police officers and the military (one of my instructors is in Afghanistan right now doing that), but I don't fool myself into thinking that this prepares me for any sort of warfighting.

Welcome snake.

Regarding The Walking Dead and how/ what the start of the zpoc was, the creator and writers have never said. They purposefully don't care as they are interested in the survivor aspect. They been asked many times.

Hi,

Thanks! Just curious. Some of the companies seem to be gaining respectability (media perception) as trainers of police & preppers. Of course, the show, "Sons of Guns" helps too. Wasn't sure if not-current police/military found it worthwhile.

SnakeDoctor, I din't intend to hijack your intro thread! My apologies!
