The TC 68 delivers unmatched versatility, customizable performance and realistic handling in a rugged, tactical package designed to translate training directly to the field.

Duty pistols are changing. As agencies add pistol-mounted optics (PMOs) to patrol and special-unit pistols, training and qualification must evolve with them. Below is a practical, agency-ready approach that pairs policy, a simple training progression, and a cost model to help stretch training dollars without sacrificing realism or safety.

A new Police1 report, “Training to Survive,” sheds light on what many officers already know — training hours are limited, standards are inconsistent and preparation often falls short of what the job demands. The findings paint a clear picture: modern law enforcement needs more hands-on, ongoing and scenario-based training that mirrors the realities officers face every day.

T4E – Training for Engagement, a leading provider of reality-based training solutions for law enforcement, has partnered with Police1, the leading online resource for law enforcement news, training, and product information. This collaboration underscores the critical importance of continued training for officers and agencies nationwide.
