My Krav instructor was a sheriff's deputy for 20+ years and teaches Krav to law enforcement. From what he's said, the curriculum for them is slanted toward weapon disarms, choke hold escapes, take downs, etc., so Krav can be and most definitely is taught to law enforcement.

I like other disciplines/styles and plan to study BJJ and Muay Thai later on. I just don't think it's valid to say no tournaments = untested. After all:

- US Military using Krav >= competitions/tournaments

- IDF using Krav >= competitions/tournaments

- Law Enforcement using Krav >= competitions/tournaments

Right?
