4. Many LEO's do not put alot of rounds through their weapons. I am sure that other LEO's will validate that. Again money for ammo and time are a big factor.
5. Customer service doesn't mean shit if you are in Iraq or Afghanistan and need assistance. For one there are many other issues to deal with like ITAR restructions, DDTC approval and of course shipping times. I can tell you from first hand experience that we had to wait an average of 2-3 months from the time we submitted an order until it was approved and all of the red tape was finalized.
