I never used my CS in the police and only used the baton a few times, as I'm quite confident in my ability to talk my way out of most confrontational situations. Can't see myself using any of it really. If things get that bad the police should have been called before they got to that level. Will loo...

Turns out I need to purchase cuffs and pepper spray myself, so much for hoping they'd be issued to me. Can anyone recommend places other than Wellington Army Surplus and the shop just down the road from there for this sort of thing? If I'm going to have to buy handcuffs I'd rather use the Hiatt Spee...

Looked at Transit Guards and it looks ideal, but the recruitment process takes a few weeks, and I was looking for something with a more immediate start.

Just to add a UK perspective: When I was in the police in the UK, we had completed the conversion to digital radio systems. We used the Airwave network, provided by o2, whic ran off the mobile phone network, and thus we were able to take advantage of the extended coverage provided by the network inf...
