NOT arguing or quibbling, but.
[QUOTE=Hargow20;2927757]When picking up a SW it is best to drive 1-2 blocks before doing a cop check. Now I typically ask the girl to touch or grab me. Do not say anything that co-notates sex. This way you avoid implicating yourself if she is a decoy. The other reason for driving away is that you lessen the chance a cop will see you do this if they are lurking by. Personally I prefer driving 2 blocks before doing a cop check.[/QUOTE]Does anyone on here have solid, credible evidence of a decoy getting into a vehicle and driving ANYWHERE? I'm sure it isn't everywhere, but I know firsthand, that many departments absolutely forbid that, on grounds of "officer safety". I've asked a lot of 30+ year veterans of the sport, and none of them could cite, for sure, ane example.
Just asking, not flaming.
Happy Hunting, Stay Safe.
