Is it a department issued weapon? Do you have a choice or do regulations make you carry the standard firearm for your department?
It’s issued. We just swapped from the Gen 4 22 to the Gen 5 17. I don’t think they let you choose, here. Since 9mm ammo is cheaper. I have a Gen 3 22 with a trigger job and extended mag release and slide release from the last Agency I worked. I got it when it was brand new and carried it for about 7 years when they went to the Gen 4. Got it for a decent price. I’d like to have the Glock 43 for off duty/concealed carry, but I’m El Cheapo, so I won’t ever buy one
You think that lil pussy Sig could do this? https://www.ballisticmag.com/2018/05/23/glock-17-torture-test-ocean/
Still not convinced? Here's a comparison where Glock beat that tranny carrying Sig. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog...es-dropped-comprehensive-omaha-outdoors-test/
Everyone was buying them 3 years ago. Along with the M&P Shield and XDs. I rarely carry when I’m not at work. My wife has a .380 bodyguard I’ll slip in my pocket if I feel the urge to carry a pistol.
Weren't there trigger problems with the body guard? I've been tempted to buy a Shield but I don't shoot the handguns that I have so haven't pulled the trigger. I know I should shoot my hand guns and I can walk out my back yard so no excuse.
