Btw a 50 will only leave a golfball sized divots in these things. You roughly need to stack two shoots or put 3 shoots in a 1.5 inch group to penetrate the armor. That's just my experience.
These are the most common APC in the world but I agree a police dept doesn't need them. Most third world military's are buying our surplus up but they are used for actually military operations.
heh, how about a 4 pound BP cannon?Not a lot of 20mm+ floating around for civvies, probably more cannons.
reinforces my point that for police use it might as well be a modern tank
Let's hope the Sheriff bought this just in case SHTF so he can help the good guys. Hey, its a possibility. We still have a few good Sheriffs in CO.
The second they roll it out against civilians, they join the bad guys.

They actually used this thing against a man barricaded in a house in south Lakewood a few years back...ran it through the wall, dropped the rear ramp, jumped out and arrested him. The house was a rental.
Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...
Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
I knew they have had it awhile but hadn't heard about that. So much for my hopes.

Of course the sheriff needs it. There might be a rancher grazing his cattle on land the BLM wants to preserve for some mouse or tortoise or something.
