Do you score targets like PPC Scoring Rings or by percentage? So what about handicap Retirees? Not all of us have aged well. Strokes, cancer, diabetes and such.

So what about wheelchair bound retirees? Asking for a friend. Also can a walker be used as the barricade?

How we do it is, when you Retire your Credentials are endorsed for CCW and good for five years. But you have to have the Annual Qual Card too. I still have a few old friends who retired in the 1980s and 1990s and their CCW are good indefinitely.

At my Department we had numerous Courses and they are harder for Retirees than the Officers. Retirees have a Score to make and Officers just a Percentage. Revolvers are out here too.

Does your Agency have anyone 75+ years old shooting that Course? Most of the retirees I know carry pocket pistols but for LEOSA they show up with a four inch revolver or a Beretta 92FS.

What Agency? Because in Europe anything is possible and here in the USA, well it is possible.

OP how much did you think it was worth? I’m asking because I had people ask me if their inherited old revolver was worth $20 or $50 because that was the price of used revolvers in the 1960s.

Yes

$400 Very common 38 Special revolver and they last forever. My suggestion for ammunition is a 158 grain Lead bullet.

Which revolver are you shooting it in?

First you are overthinking it. If you are using a 158 grain Lead Semi Wad Cutter (LSWC) in the 357 Magnum revolver. I always try to keep my velocity under 1000 FPS to prevent leading of the barrel. The Forcing Cone and the K frame will be fine. Your starting load with TiteGroup will be 4.5 grains.
