Quick indiana state police question

[sig1473]

My experience over the last decade would lead me to believe the the best answer is it is agency dependent. Saying most sheriffs offices allow it would be a bit misleading in my experiences/opinion.

Stay safe

Yes it is very much agency dependent. In Greene County, as a Reserve, you must provide your own firearm. It must meet certain criteria though(i.e. caliber).

LOL, I wonder how I've gotten away with carrying a custom M&P .45 for the past year in uniform?

How long will you be able to carry your M&P? Indefinitely?

 

[JMoses]

Not clear yet. We were originally informed that it would be until we get the Sig's, but I've recently heard a rumor that they are considering to continue to allow it.

Revovler? Dude, 1976 called, it wants its issue weapon back.

You could have gone with, "1876 called, it wants its issue weapon back" as well. Colt Peacemaker vice S&W Model 19, but it still works.

My understanding is that they are required to carry the issued firearm. They used to issue a .380 back up and off duty gun. Not sure if they still do.

What are you trying to say?

Is a 1911 on the list of approved duty weapons? I'd pickup a TRP Operator or something in 10mm

Nope

 

[Birds Away]

This goes to show there is no such thing as a "quick" firearm question on .

 

[aaron580]

Nope

What all is on this list then?

 

[JMoses]

Only 45's, Sig's, FN's M&P's, XD's and a few others..I'd have to look at it again.

Just as a guess, the list would exclude any SAO pistols, as it seems that many agencies today see them as unnecessarily dangerous.

Yes, no single action.
