Yikes... Maybe this should be in the never again forum.
1936 LA sheriffs dept training video. Shooting straws out if each others mouths.

Syntyr, thanks for that. I really enjoyed it. Having grown up in the LASD jurisdiction, this is a lot different than the department I knew, and had several friends who worked for.

The ones you knew were probably not (brave?) enough to put cigarettes in their ears,and let someone shoot at them .

A few observations... one of the ear shots was about a mm from hitting his ear! there were a few close shots on hands and mouth! Also I didn't see them wearing ear plugs or even brass!
As a kid, I would have loved to go see them though... as an adult, I cringe on the close shots. ...lol

Where is your sense of adventurism?

The first part was video of an exhibition team, not a "how to" video. Still a reminder of how times have changed.

My advice is to aim at the empty space between the two pieces of chalk.
