M&P's are nice. I recommend trying out a Springfield XD series before you purchase though! Used both and decided to go with the XD9, awesome handgun.

Nice. I think my next purchase for firearms will be a .357SIG barrel for my .40 SIG 2022. Basically another gun in one ::)

I have a XD-s 45 as my CCW. I like XD's, I am indifferent to XDM's

I want a .357 sig at some point just for S&G.

Been a busy couple of days


My ambulance would beat up your ambulance.


I've never had an ambulance that was uncomfortably tall before. Now I do.


That said... I've already taken it places where a mere mortal ambulance would have gotten stuck.

So California Chrome didn't win the Triple Crown yesterday, but don't worry, they already have a new job lined up. Introducing iGlue.

Lol I know what you mean. Yours looks almost identical to mine. Except a few years older. It's a Wheeled Coach Type I on a 4x4 F450 chassis. This thing gets abused on lease roads out to oil rigs on a regular basis and comes back for more. I actually like it, which is saying something considering I usually hate boxes and anything other than Type IIs

Pretty much. Mine is less frills... No side steps, and a HIGH 4x4. But handles well and doesn't complain.

Is Medstar Ambulance in Mendocino County, California really not capable of performing 12-leads? I tried looking at their protocols, I think Coastal Valley EMS, and does have protocols for 12-leads, but not sure.

Somebody at work told me I should look at doing my internship with them because they have a wide scope of practice. "They can give magnesium for shortness of breath." For some reason they told me "They can't do 12-leads," which made me question if they really have a significantly wider scope of practice compared to the rest of California. To me, an ALS ambulance not being able to do a 12-lead is like a hotel room not having a bathroom. :/

Well it's how the call starts lol


:rofl:

Fair enough.

Jon and TJ....I wish we went with the Type 1 crew or extended cab they were talking about. Heck even the dodge single cab's front seats recline more than our Type 3s. Sounds like they decided on Type 3 Ford gassers...booooooo

I saw that. So sad. I can't understand how people can do things like this. It seems premeditated.

They might not be EMS but they're still our brothers and sisters. Rest easy boys, we'll take it from here.
