Buffett, 62, has served since September 2014 as undersheriff in the county of roughly 107,000 people.
Before his promotion on Friday, Howard Buffett had completed more than 3,300 hours of patrol and training, and had 76 weapons qualifications including Tasers, handguns, rifles and shotguns.

Now here's a fellow who can do anything he wishes to do. And so he makes an interesting choice.
Bet his gun collection isn't nearly so scrubby as mine.
And it appears that the old adage about "every other generation" has some validity to it.
We better get him as an NFOA member.
For your reading pleasure.

76 weapons qualifications? :o Define "Scrubby"
SemperFiGuy:
I spoke of my own scrubby gun collection, which includes various and assorted plain old ordinary Glocks, XDs, Ruger 22/45s, Marlins, a Remington or two..........
Most bought used. Nuthin' very special. And also a Jiminez JA-22. (Do NOT let this latter fact get out to the rest of the forum. Way, way too embarrassing. That JA-22 is about as scrubby as it gets.)
Now, Howard Buffet's collection probably has high-end Kimbers, STIs, Perazzis, Krieghoffs, Merkels, etc., etc.
As it happens, Mr. Buffet's weapons qualifications appear to be outstanding. All 76 of them. After all, he is the sheriff.

Lol, I seem to remember a thread from long ago about the jiminez. Guess my "Collection" could be defined as "Scrubby" as well. ;D

Mine would be scrubby and puny without a doubt. But it is mine and none can take it from me (except my wife)
Wonder what kind of sheriff he will be?
