Fixed it for you.surprise_i'm_armed wrote:Darn, I know somewhere on the board there is such a dataset, but here's some that we use on here regularly (there's a million).
These are in no particular order, just off the top of my head.
BG = Bad Guy. GG = Good Guy. IIRC = If I recall correctly. SA = Semi-automatic pistol. HG = Handgun (could be either pistol or revolver).
GSR = Gunshot residue. LEO = Law Enforcement Officer (more respectful than 'cop'). FTE = Failure to Eject.
FTF = Failure to Fire, or Face to Face. POA = Point of Aim. POI = Point of Impact. DRT = Dead Right There. COM = Center of Mass.
ADW = Assault with a Deadly Weapon. YMMV = Your Mileage May Vary, to indicate that your experiences or opinions may differ from others.
Mag = Magazine. A mag is not a clip. IWB = In Waistband holster. OWB = Outer Waistband holster. MG = Machine gun. SMG = Submachine gun.
"Rig" - The manner/hardware in which you carry your handgun. It could be an IWB, OWB, shoulder holster, pocket carry, purse carry, or whatever.
FFL = Federal Firearms Licensee I believe, in other words - a legal firearms dealer. Straw buyer = A person who is legal to buy firearms, but
breaks the law by buying firearms for someone who is unable to buy firearms legally.
SIA = surprise_i'm_armed.
