I understand the comments that have been made by all. What I still can't figure out is, what the big deal is with everyone wanting to know what specific ammo any LE agency uses. Another thread would read what gun does X LE agency use. I know that some of us care very much. But whats the big deal ? Who cares ? (obviously someone does). There is no flaming intended here, just some observations/comments.
Personally, I do ask as a matter of course what the LE groups I work with use as duty ammo. But this is only out of simple couriosity and not to get an edge as to the type of ammo I should be using. Hydra Shoks, Starfire, GS, Silvertips, Glaser and others all make excellent defensive ammo. But it really is a matter of what brand your specific gun shoots best that will make the difference.
I hope (and believe) that no one here goes by the old addage that "If the FBI uses it its good, and its gotta be the stuff I use". I hav eseen all to many folks fall into this trap. Heck the FBI can't even make up its mind about what it likes and what it doesn't. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like every couple of years they completely change their issue/carry guns and the ammo thats approved for them. Me, I've been using either Hydra Shoks or WW Silvertips since they initially came out. I liked the reports that I read about these rounds and they function flawlessly in my pistols. I wouldn't care if Everybody in the world switched to Corbons "Most Bestest Brand". I'd still stick with the Hydra Shoks and Silvertips.
