    It is a glorified recruitment production and I am ok with that too.
    Pretty good insight to some of the stuff the Cadet will experience once they get to Depot...if they make the RCMP cut.
    Other Police Forces will have different hiring practices.

    That an average trip to the range for me on a weekly basis

    I cant believe that's all they get, should be more like 6000 to 8000 rounds downrange

    Judging by all the holes in the ceiling and walls at our local indoor range not all went "down range"! Glad the local LEO's have their own range now.
