The Future of Modern Policing – DCI Gene Hunt – Hardback
by admin on Apr.13, 2009, under Patrol Store
Whatever you think of Gene Hunt’s method of policing he’s certainly no fool. With his take no crap, don’t give a damn about anything attitude he gets the job done.
Following on from his successful 1973 edition of The Rules of Modern Policing this book will give you the ins and outs of what to expect with future policing in the eighties.
Everything was so much simpler in the seventies. As seen in his documentary Life on Mars, when a crime was being committed you tracked a nearby blagger and “persuaded” him to confess and sent him off for a good long stretch.
Sadly, the eighties bring a completely different kettle of fish. It’s a whole new breed of shoulder-pad-sporting, bouffant haired, foundation-caked, coke snorting, race-rioting career criminals.
As portrayed in Ashes to Ashes, Gene Hunt is on hand to help his fellow officers. This book is packed full of advice for officers of all ranks and is an invaluable tool which discusses all the new issues facing the Met. Riots, forensics, political correctness (what the!?), IT, drugs and advanced interrogation techniques that you just might be able to persuade the judge that they’re legal are all discussed here.
With practical exercises at the end of each chapter, including a very helpful “Spot the Drug Addict” picture quiz, it means if you really don’t know your arse from your elbow you can learn to blag it at least.
The Gene Genie may not be the most modern of cops in the Met but if you want to be one of the top dogs then you should really buy this book.
Things you will learn from this guide are that “good” evidence puts criminals in the dock but “bad” evidence puts you there, you really shouldn’t obtain evidence by bribing people (apparently), signed confessions should be given voluntary (who came up with this idea?) and much more.
Although this book has not been endorsed by the NPIA it really should be as its considered essential reading for those wishing to undertake their OSPRE or Investigator exams.

Jack Pyke Waterproof Fleece – Olive Green
by admin on Apr.03, 2009, under Patrol Store
What makes this fleece any different from other fleece jackets on the market?
Besides being great value for money they are made from Breatha-tex which is breathable and waterproof.
With no apparent waterproof lining this prevents the build up of moisture from sweating making it extremely comfortable.
Versatility is the key here as it can be worn as a waterproof jacket or as a normal fleece, which makes it perfect for military personnel as it can be worn as an outer or under garment in place of Gore-Tex.

by Lianeh on Apr.02, 2009, under Patrol Store
The MWC NATO G10 watch is the coolest watch on the market – recreating the vibe of the standard issue military G10 watch. Made in Germany by the Military Watch Company who specialise in making rugged, sleek watches that can withstand being out in the field.
Featuring a battery hatch it enables the wearer to change their own battery, which is perfect for those out in the field who aren’t near any jewellers or watch makers that can do the job for them.
It comes in gunmetal black, which not only looks good but also is perfect if you’re looking for a style to match your equipment. It’s also finished in black matt, which is required by most Special Forces units.
The Stealth version of the G10 has impact resistant glass on the dial as apposed to Perspex, which means if you’re being shot at you can at least still tell the time.
The G10 is non-reflective as well which means when the sun is beaming down on you it’s discreetness won’t give away your position to the enemy.
