The Western Hemisphere is our shared home, and, even during peacetime, it’s critical that our military forces practice these skills with our partners so that in the future we can quickly work together in a crisis.
Can you identify the handgun below? Note the Trijicon red dot on the slide.

Apparently, Coronel Fidel Castro of the Fuerza Aérea del Perú has never fired a full auto weapon as someone is holding his back like they do with noobs at a full auto rental range for tourists.
