Rocky_Raccoon,
Are you referring to Military Policemen? I wonder if they are better trained than "any law enforcement";I would need to see the footnote on that statement. The average recruit does not handle a handgun in basic these days. Last May my neighbor and his Marine son home on leave after basic hunted turkeys on my farm. When they came out of the woods at noon, I chatted with the young Marine. He did not handle a handgun at Paris Island, he said only the MPs get to use handguns. I spent the afternoon checking him out on a .357 revolver and a Colt M1911A1 because he never shot a handgun before and was going to Iraq. I never shot a handgun in basic or any of the four years I was in the military.
