I forgot to mention JJ that I have no idea what the new training ammunition is other than it is purple casings and bullets and they will function similarly to the 40 cal and 5.56 rounds we currently use for duty. I am still thinking that training with rounds you don't count on when seconds count is a stupid idea, but then again I remember bitching about 38 wad cutters when I was carrying 357 mag rounds everywhere but at the range. Some lessons that we had to learn in blood are evidently easily forgotten by todays kids that know far more than I have ever learned.
