NYPD Fail

[Streck-Fu]

Maybe he has that rear sight up because that Eotech sight has just never worked quite right. Like what's the big fuss about Eotech? They don't work right anyway?

Edit....Missed it as sarcasm. Sorry....

after reading happygunners post, your right, had to look a second time to get it tho.

The EOTech is mounted backwards.

Aha!

That would explain it.

I've never actually ever used a red-dot or installed one so I wouldn't have recognized that without actually seeing/handling it in person I don't imagine.

In that case... yes... fail.

We are talking about a department that shot innocent people on the street in front of the Empire State Building because they fired at a perp into a crowd. Sorry folks but sometimes it's best to find the bad guy another day rather than get into a gun battle in a crowd or car chase through a school zone ect.
When I travel to Chicago (a lot) I'm more afraid when I see a cop than I am to see a vagrant. All the statistics show that police fire more rounds that never hit their intended target than ones that do.
The cop in the photo obviously has never shot his rifle. Does he expect it to zero itself?

In some professions and dealing with firearms there is no room for mistakes. Ask the civilian who got killed cleaning a loaded gun. No second chances.

I think for the most part our local law enforcement is competent in this area thank god! Not that I'm any less worried about half the civilians who carry, like the ones who handed the cops at the 1500 loaded weapons. Are you fricken serious? Come on people.
