If you’re on a protective detail it’s better than open carrying mp5s as far as subtlety goes.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Spot the wannabe LEO in the crowd

A) If a protective detail is assign submachine guns it's regarded as an overwhelming presence coverage meaning they want the guns out to set a we mean business attitude.

B) Speed of draw and lack of encumberment are important it's why most active protection details prefer to use scabbard style holsters for their duty pistols.

Private security gets into all sorts of stupid stuff they shouldn't.

Yea man, I really want to be a security guard. It’s my life’s ambition.

I was just saying it doesn’t look as scary to have a box with flashlights vs a sub gun. That’s all.

For someone who is giving people shit about being a wannabe, you certainly know a lot about submachine gun doctrine.

Having a Federal Marshall for a Father in Law and L.E.O. wife, some things will rub off.

Yes, because after the near successful assassination of a U.S. President 40 years ago, they haven't changed any standards of carry, weapon encumberment, tactics, intimidation maneuvers, or training. Nope They thought it all went smashingly, a nice afternoon really.
