Gear and Employment Considerations for LE
I recently rolled out of narcotics and back to patrol and I decided to put together an "active shooter vest". It seems to make more sense than a gigantic bag that I honestly am probably not going to carry if something crazy were to kick off.
I bought a Shellback Banshee PC and then put 3 AR mags, a blow out kit, and a big utility pouch for other goodies. I've got set up "big enough" that I can simply throw it over whatever I already have on and I'm ready to go.
As for former military in the LE ranks, I'd say it is 10 maybe 15% former military in my area, at most.

I got my banshee from LAPolice Gear on a black Friday deal... It was back ordered and finally came in last week.
Not to derail the thread any further, but I was ignorant of the Drega incident... I'm sincerely sorry for the loss of those involved, but I will never fear being killed over writing someone a ticket for a rusted tailgate, if the true story is as I read it. That is a real shame.
