Hi all.
I am a British Probationer Constable ("Rookie"). Still in training school.
I have just received a huge bag of weird crap, among them, a duty belt and items like Monadnock 26" collapsible Baton, rigid 360 degree holder, pep spray holder, Hyatt fixed cuffs+holder and a small velcro flapped "wallet" which carries gloves and a Health and Safety breathing assist kit.
I would like to load the belt properly as it doesnt seem like we will be shown exactly how to. can you guys give me an idea of how to set-off? I know it is an individual preference, but it will help if I start off on a roll from your experience and modify things as I go along.
I am left handed, in striking and writing, ambidexterous in cuffing, I am also aware that the RH grip strength is distinctly better than the left hand. Although we do not carry firearms, I shoot with my right (right eye dominant), but the pep spray feels better in the left.
I was practicing the loading, and seem to have both the cuffs and baton on my RHS. The Baton is set to cross-draw with my left hand (holder adjusted to be in-line with belt, almost) and the Cuffs are placed just behind the holder, about 5" upstream. The H&S wallet is on my LHS, above the the left butt. The pepper spray is about in line with my LH pants seam.
Warmest Regards
