Speaking of self-defense guns, Jimmy actually has another problem. If he wants to travel, should he take a gun with him? If you bring one, you will need a CCW or Concealed Carry License. Another problem is that Arkansas’s CCW is not recognized by all states. You also need to confirm in advance whether the place you are going to is recognized.
In reality, the United States only passed the LEOSA Act (Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act) in 2004, allowing active police officers across the United States to legally carry guns in any state. The main reason is that in many cases, when police are targeted or have accidents, they are off duty. Before 2004, general police officers were allowed to carry guns within the state, but not across state lines. The actual situation is that many police officers live in one state and work in another state, and it is necessary to carry handguns across state lines.
After many years of hard work, the bill was finally passed in 2004. From then on, as long as the police are on duty, they can carry guns to other states and it is legal. It is equivalent to a national CCW.
The time now is 2000, and there is no such bill yet. Jimmy can only apply for CCW like ordinary people, so that he can carry his own pistol when traveling to other states.
It was time to choose the second gun carefully. Jimmy contacted another shooting range. There were more revolvers there, which was much better than the shooting range he originally went to. The previous shooting range only had a few revolvers used by the police. Mainly because Not many people really use this, and everyone buys it themselves.
In the end, Jimmy chose to buy another identical M686-1 as his second revolver. There was really no way around the difficulty of choosing.
There was no rush to buy a pistol. Jimmy first contacted Kagg to report his travel plans. Then, he completed the submission of information directly at the police station and waited for CCW to courier him home.
A few days later, Jimmy got the CCW and went to the store where he bought the gun before and bought a similar M686-1. Jimmy also reported this gun to the police station as a spare gun and kept it at home.
Two weeks have passed since the last DEA case, and Jimmy still hasn't waited for the DEA to ask for an inquiry and hearing on the police officer's shooting, as if they had forgotten that there was a small policeman involved in the fight.
Several new training officers have been added to the bureau, and they are now led by their respective FTOs for practical training. Jimmy's qualifications are too low and he did not get the opportunity, but this is to take care of him, because he has not undergone complete training. See Although he looks like a human being, he is actually completely unqualified to lead people.
Kag has discussed Jimmy's arrangement with the chief and is currently communicating. The initial opinion is to put Jimmy in the police station as a full support police officer.
Jimmy has no interest in patrolling. Now, if he doesn't want to issue a ticket when he's in a bad mood, he really doesn't want to drive around on the road. It's very boring.
Now that he had the opportunity to be in a daze in the police station, he couldn't ask for it.
Jimmy now desperately hopes that the police officers who came in before can start patrolling alone, freeing him completely, leaving a car, waiting for notification from the dispatch center, and other times just letting him go. What a beautiful thing.
But now I can only think about whether I should go out on patrol or patrol. Jimmy is on day shift now, and he spends a lot of time in a daze when he drives out for a walk. He was warned by Karg just before, but now he is too lazy to even issue a ticket.
When Jimmy was bored, Karger's phone call came, informing him to return to the police station. Jimmy went straight back and saw an acquaintance at the police station.
Constable Thorsten and another detective, dressed in civilian clothes, were waiting for him at the police station.
"Hi, Jimmy." Thorsten greeted. His left arm and leg were still bandaged. It seemed that the last shrapnel injury lasted quite a long time.
"Jimmy, we are here specially for you this time. In order to thank you for helping us with the last case, the bureau invites you to be a guest in Dallas and visit our branch." Agent Thorsten is not that kind of person either. A very smart person, he stated his purpose directly.
Jimmy was confused. After Director James said it before, he remembered that he had already rejected the DEA's invitation. Why did such a move come suddenly? It would be okay to come directly to the door.
"Wait, let me communicate with the leader first." Jimmy glanced at the director's office, and Director James was inside. He went directly to knock on the door, opened the door and went in.
"Director, what do the DEA mean?"
"I still haven't given up on pulling you over. You can decide for yourself."
The director raised his hand and drove Jimmy out. Jimmy stood outside the director's office and thought for a moment, then nodded to Thorsten and said, "Let's talk alone?"
Jimmy and Torsten came outside through the back door, and Jimmy looked at Torsten Markus.
Jimmy: "Agent Thorsten, let's get straight to the point, what do you want to do?"
Thorsten: "OK OK, Jimmy, you know, the leader of the branch has contacted Director James before and wants to invite you to join the DEA."
Jimmy: "Well, the director informed me. But I don't want to leave just yet."
Thorsten: "Well, we have received the message conveyed by Director James. This time, we mainly hope that you can come to our place and recreate the scene of the operation that night. Our special service team very much hopes that you can meet him in person. Please ask me how you did it at that time."
Jimmy was speechless, that's it? Just because of this, you are going to poach people?
Jimmy: "Tell me earlier, that's it. Of course you can, but it's best to wait a few days. I just applied for a long leave, but it hasn't been approved yet. By the way, will the expenses be reimbursed when I go to your place?"
Thorsten was a little speechless. We have done this kind of communication a lot, so why did the expense reimbursement suddenly come up? However, it is not a big problem. The DEA still has great authority and is rich enough to pay such a small fee. , everything can be done.
"I can go back and apply for this. We will communicate with you when the specific trip time is confirmed."
"No problem. If the vacation is scheduled, I will notify you and give me your mobile phone number. Let's go in."
After talking about the matter, Jimmy and Thorsten exchanged mobile phone numbers, and then returned to the office. Thorsten said goodbye to the other agent and everyone, and left the police station, while Jimmy continued to go out on patrol.
A group of straight men talk about things in a refreshing way, without any twists and turns or brain-burning. Since he was not poaching people, Jimmy didn't care. He had planned to take a vacation anyway, so it would be good to take two days to visit a large organization like the DEA. It would be even better if he could be reimbursed for food, accommodation and travel expenses.
Dallas is also a good place. The biggest impression of Texas is the cowboys. Jimmy has also checked before. Fort Worth next to Dallas and Bandera not far from the border. For people who use revolvers, there is no other place. Texas has become more attractive. If you have enough time, you can also participate in rapid fire competitions and experience the life of a Western cowboy.
