This thread is really bad. Should be done away with.:barf:

Excellent post Stephen. I also enjoy your web site, and have seen you on another forum. I transitioned our police department to the P226R DAK (.40) last year. It has gone very well, and the weapons have performed flawlessly. I like the feel of the trigger, as well as the simplicity of...

"Ronin" was very good. But I think "Heat" was probably one of the best.

Fired the SOCOM this summer during training. Loved it. Wish I had the money for one now.

I had heard it was a Glock 23, loaded with 165 grain Gold Dot.

It's already been done. They called it the M-14.

I carried a P232 off duty for a couple of years. It was a nice gun. But I have to share an experience with you.... I used to carry it in an Alessi ankle holster. It was very secure and comfortable. (Allessi makes some great stuff - I highly recommend it) Anyway, I'm walking down the...

I went to all Sig DAK's and DAO Smith snubbies. I want everything to work the same - for all the reasons that have been stated so far. Here's my current battery: Sig P226 DAK Sig P229 DAK Sig P239 DAK Smith & Wesson 638-2 Smith & Wesson 340PD Of course, you can go all 1911's or...

Don't get me wrong guys. Any fight a cop can walk away from is ok by me. The dash cams give us all a training opportunity, so we all can learn something from an officers experience. I've seen lots of tapes that are not released to the public, and it shows officers not using deadly force (or...

The problem is not where the officer shot the suspect, but in the fact that he only shot him once. Handguns of any caliber are not the greatest performers and you must continue to fire until the threat is stopped. The threat was not stopped in this case. The way the suspect was walking...

I've carried a 340PD for a few years. Shooting .38's will get your attention and .357 Mag is like slapping your palm on a table as hard as you can. But I carry it as a back up gun, so I'm not too concerned about long distance shoots with it, as I anticipate the fight being up close at that point.

I was issued a 5903 for a few years and had no problems with it at all. With regards to LE turn in guns, some have been beat on and fired quite a bit. But unfortunately, most have not been fired very much. These guns will suffer from neglect, and rust. Sometimes agencies will...

I worked for an armored car company back in 1992-93. We were issued .38 Special Smith's and some .357 Magnum Smith's and Ruger's. Most of these revolvers were police trade in guns, from when they were switching from revolver to 9mm. Some of the guns were in good condition, and some were...

I have a Mitch Rosen pocket holster for my 340PD. Works nice, breaks up the print, holds it in the right direction, and keeps all the lint out of it.

I usually carry in a IWB. I always wear an undershirt - IWB - outer shirt. Have not had any rusting problems. And that is carrying Sigs.

I recently got word that H&K is halting shipments of the G36 to the USA. No word yet on G36 parts. I handeled a G36, and I was not overly impressed. Things are a little nervous out our way when it comes to H&K. Great products, but horrible customer service. I wonder if H&K is upset...

I've been carrying my P239 in a Kramer IWB for a couple of weeks. Very solid holster, stable, comfortable, and conceals very well. I've also used Don Hume and Mitch Rosen holsters for P220, P226, and P229. All of those brands have worked out well. One thing to keep in mind is a quality...

Lately I've been carrying: Sig Sauer P239 DAK in .40 S&W Remington 165 Grain BJHP Golden Sabers In a Kramer IWB that's attached to a Mitch Rosen belt. In the colder months I carry: Sig Sauer P229R DAK in .40 S&W Remington 165 Grain BJHP Golden Sabers In a Don Hume IWB Back Up /...

I'd go with the 686. Its brute strong and can handle all kinds of ammunition. Very good gun to learn on. When you want a semiauto, I'd go with the SIG DAK. Trigger will be simular to 686, no decocker - like the 686. Keep things simple if possible.

The 1911 by far. I've seen this pistol adopted by SWAT teams, only not to train enough on them. The result is a transition to thier sidearm and alot of fumbling around before getting them into action. Sometimes they seem to be adopted for the "cool factor". My second nomination is the...
