Detectives, their gun, and supercopping.

[DyssalC]

Also, to defend the gun, the Detective job is of course a gumshoe, Casa Blanca style guy. He doesn't use any fancy space man weaponry, he keeps his trusty big iron with him at all times. I'll admit, the amount of lethal ammo available to him is a bit high, 4 reloads per machine with a total of 4 machines I can think of off the top of my head. However, there is no reason to remove the gun itself or stun ammo for that matter.

I am not suggesting removing the gun, just putting the lethal ammo in the armory with the rest of sec's more lethal gear. also I would argue that the detective's job is to solve crimes after they happen and not prevent them like a sec officer does. a detective should be more like a forensic specialist in real life than a beat cop.

Okay, but.

If a crime happens, you investigate the crime, and this ultimately leads to you discovering and confronting the perpetrator, how do you proceed?

I mean, the purpose of investigating a crime is to ultimately catch whoever did it.

Perhaps you have sec with you when you go to investigate. But why is it so bad that you just go do it yourself? I mean, you should always have backup, but sometimes all of sec is dead and somebody needs to do SOMETHING.
