Cops do not practice on a weekly basis. Cops are hardly shooting professionals.

That is correct. I can personally attest to that for where I live. The local cops have free use of my shooting club and they hold their qualifications there. It is pretty amusing watching them qualify. (I saw that once last summer.) I wouldn't call them bumbling idiots, but they definitely are not shooting professionals.

I once got to fire at an indoor Thai Police pistol range. My US Army group were firing old WW-II vintage .45 semi-autos. The Thai police were using .38 revolvers.

My advice to all traveling there. If a Thai police officer yells "STOP" you better be skidding to a stop. They were really good. At least those training that day were.

None were in uniform so maybe they were an elite group, not regular street cops.
