i see this more as an indication of the low levels of training and intestinal fortitude prevalent in the modern police force
if a supposedly highly trained aos member cant tell at a glance from 20 mtrs the exact model and capabilities of any common firearm .. then they shouldnt be aos officers .. they will get themselves and their team members killed
but
isnt this more a furfie to try and justify an unjustified lethal responce
a coward will pull the trigger a lot faster than the standard of officer i would hope are the norm for regular police officers and esp the aos
