Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt. That's the first thing they teach you.

Actually works good with an AP or Eotech. Not my preferred, but very much usable. |

There are different levels of "US Marshall". Some do courthouse/courtroom security, some do prisoner transport, and some do door-kicking. A lot of the fugitive door-kicking teams are task-forces made up of local LE "deputized" as a Marshall. |

| I have a good friend that is a US Marshall. Let's say somebody gets all messed up on meth, robs a bank, kills three tellers, and holes up in a dirtbag motel and wants to play bad ass. My friend is who they send to dig him out. Super nice young man with a great family. Glad I know him. |
