What is the purpose of a compound bow for a police unit? I also saw some pictures from Metro Dade (FL) SWAT displaying a crossbow.

As a crossbow owner (that's the only weapon -Barnett Delta Storm- I have at home) I have always wondered why they would use such a weapon... :roll:

The RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) they work in smaller cities across Canada so they're dealing with alot of outdoor activity, and a compound bow is a perfect weapon very silent but deadly.

The last 2 pictures you posted andyrew_21 those guys are Edmontons tactical unit

Tactical Police units do alot of training on CF bases. I've seen em do a lot of cool **** thats shown in those pics.
One time at Meaford, we were doing patrols close to the fib site, and no one told us the peel police were there. Apparently one of the other patrols thought it was the enemy and fired on them, and everything on both sides went to ****.
Later on that night my patrol came really close to the site (we had to recce one of the buildings) and as we got close, all we could hear is two men screaming in an escalating argument, and then a gunshot followed by "HOLY **** YOU SHOT ME! I CANT BELIEVE YOU ****ING SHOT ME AAAGH". We got on the radio because it sounded like a no duff, but turned out to be some scenario type deal - very convincing.

[WoodChipper]

Your MO! what do you know! malitia storys are becoming boring already. Sorry to burst your bubble but the R.C.M.P do not use compond bows as weapons. Stop ****ting the public.

[pAt]

[WoodChipper]

[WoodChipper]

Why?

[pAt]

[WoodChipper]

Why, the comment was a ligetimate one. The R.C.M.P aren"t the Wild Geese. They don't take guys out with bow and arrows.

[pAt]

A perfect weapon for WHAT??? They are the police for God's sake. Subsonic rounds and a suppressor would be cheaper, smaller, more accurate, and no additional training.

[WoodChipper]

you said it.

Hmm Ill ask my friend his dads an RCMP so mabey he'll know...

But clearly it shows that the RCMP ERT use this as a weapon because the picture is found on the RCMP website, and no information is given on it.

[memphiz]

Newly-engaged ERT members must first learn the concepts and techniques of an assaulter before taking on more specialized roles.The Assaulter must learn and develop tactical deployment skills to neutralize all types of major crime incidents:

* Weapons training: 9mm pistol; H&K MP5; M16 Assault rifle
* Close-quarter shooting
* Use of specialized breaching tools
* Diversion devices
* Explosive entry tactics
* Aircraft and tubular assault
* High-risk vehicle assault, dynamic and stealth
* Building assault
* High-risk operational planning: immediate action,stronghold, open-air, ambush
* Bush training
* Camouflage
* Stealth movement
* Dynamic entry
* Chemical weapons
* Communications


The ERT Sniper / Observer must develop skills in addition to those of other team members, including:

* Weapon safety
* Ballistics: weight, velocity, energy, trajectory
* Marksmanship: positioning, holding, pointing, aligning
* Position: ****e, sitting, kneeling, standing,
* Weather / light conditions: sub-zero, snow, rain, wind, fog, cloud, heat, dawn, day, dusk, darkness
* Cover and concealment, movement without detection
* Target indication: arc and field of fire
* Distance judgment
* Image intensifiers
* Map and compass
* Communications
Well mabey it was a training exercise

[marty649]

Pointless anyway ERT was disbanded, Plus maybe that guy is just sport hunting. :D....

Nevermind im thinking SERT...

[andyrew_21]

i'd rather take out a guy with an arrow than a bullet :lol: takes more skill, oh by the way, Pics of Canadian Tactical Police are kinda hard to come by, so if you have more pics, keep em coming

[andyrew_21]

I guess savage beastly methods of taking out criminals is just the way we roll up here.

Memph. The pics that u labelled as Ottawa police. I read somewhere that the guys with the green webbing on are rumoured to be our Secret Squirrels in action during the anti globalization protests or G8 something rather.
But then again, there all the rage these days.

[andyrew_21]

By "secret squirrels" your talkin about JTF-2 right? just to clarrify

10-4 keemo sabbey.

[ctcboy]

They are not waering the same kind of helmet that JTF2 uses. Their helmet
has what I assume is a mount for nvg on the front about an inch or 2 above the rim.

The guys in the Black is the OPP Riot squad You can tell buy their Armor, I would say that the guys in Green are either ERT from the RCMP or from Ottawa City.

I have a friend that is a ERT team member here in the lower mainland Vancouver and they do not train with the Bow anymore. They did up until the early 90's then dropped it for more conventional training. Hope that helps.

Funny because "arc" means ...bow in French!! ;)

As Deuterium said, to me a bow / crossbow is useless for current police / SOF duties. It makes (little) noise when releasing the trigger and after a few years of off and on practice I can't go any better than accurately hitting the size of a small plate at 70 meters. That is why I am still wondering when I see that kind of pictures.

Mine is a Barnett Delta Storm (http://www.barnettcrossbows-uk.com/deltastorm.htm) with a 2.5 x 20mm XBOW scope.

Posing and looking cool in police/paramilitary uniforms doesn't mean much. Let's hope the Canadian government put these guys to do real work by stopping those pot growers up north. Those liberal Canadians are exporting their cash crop to the detriment of US.

[andyrew_21]

Guess what we just voted in another Liberal Gov't (God knows why, because I sure as hell didnt vote for them.) Unfortunately my friend, you got bigger problems than pot from Canada to worry about. Why do you think they export it to the states. For Coke and lots of it.

You should realy remove your head from you ass because it can cause brain damage.
