Greeting's All;
I don't think you will see a department mandating
that LEO's as a whole carry a wheel-gun. These days, the BG's are heavily armed with Tec-9/s,
Mac-10's, Uzi's and etc; that offer far greater
fire power than the standard service revolver.
For this reason alone, I believe that most LEO's
would prefer a high capacity auto-loader at best;
supplemented by an H&K MP-5!!!
Some folk's, including LEO's can shoot a revolver
much better. But today's society seems to dictate
the need for the most modern, up-to-date firearms
available. With that said, give me a high capacity
Sig, Glock, H&K USP, or Beretta any day of the week to fight crime and criminal's.
Best Wishes,
