For those of you who may be full/part time constables I have a few questions:
1) Is it worth it (job satisfaction wise)?
- I am considering applying for my constable licence because I'm debating a return to law enforcement and would like to feel it out again (That, and the no firearm restriction perk).
2) Is it worh it (monetary wise)?
- The town I would be applying in says I have to kick back 25% of what I make to the town. Is this normal? Would I make back the money spent in application fees and bonding insurance fairly qickly or would it take time?
3) I have looked but can't seem to find any form of official/professional constable training. The only thing I would have to rely on when starting out is everything I remember from my old training days.
4) Since the firearm restrictions don't apply due to constables falling into the LE category what sidearm would you recommend? Kimber, Springfield KD, etc...?
