Re: Soo sent off my ap

Post by Wadesta »

I found it to be the easiest of the tests. Having said that, I am a member at the Lone Ranges Shooting Complex so I have had alot of training with the glock. I dont think you will have a problem with it. If your worried, go down to the shooting range and have a practice ? Its alot of fun and you will see what the real thing is like.

The Glock 22 is the Police issue I believe ? I may stand corrected but im pretty sure its a G22.

Hope that helps.

Wade :)

Just thought i'd let yas know i had my physical today and i passed it.. :D i was second last person still running on the beep test.. everyone else stopped at LVL 10.1. I made it to LVL 10.7 before i got called short.

Passed the agility test on the 2nd run as i was JUST out of allowed time on the first go..

i think out of 20ppl only 7 or 8 of us passed!.

Cheers

Thanks Wade. Yeh the dry firing was pretty basic. was rather worried by how many people picked up the glock and pointed it at their toes/roof/other applicants....even if it is a dry fire.... needless to say they got a fail.... :roll:

AFAIK im in the same boat as you now Wade. Just playing the waiting game to find out about final medicals and such.. keep me posted on your progress mate.
