So, now that the first question was answered, let’s move on to the next.

    Rifle being used in FHP history? sure, first page in the google result return: November 2012, a trooper used a rifle to shoot a gun wielding suspect.


    Now, please learn to write and calm down.
    Wow Troopers use guns? Where in a crash report do you list that?

    Wasn't a rifle used by the Trooper, when he shot the cemetery worker during his Sig 10 investigation in the Tampa area.

    I'm not sure Sig has anything bigger than 45 GAP. I heard we might be switching to a .50AE round. Well, that or 300 blackout if they make a handgun to shoot it. Anyone hear anything like that?

    THe military is having tons of problems with the P320! So no not a good choice... I am not a huge Glock Fan Boy however they just work and there is a reason they hold about 85% or more of the US Law Enforcement Market.

    Your new sidearm shall be a Laser Atlanta. We will outfit you with applicable holsters. FHP troopers do not need guns. That is a bad combination. Didn't you guys just end up having an accidental discharge in a hospital? Case in point.. Laser Atlanta it is.

Who cares about cars, pr-24, riffles, etc. name 1 Trooper in the history of FHP that has used his riffle? NEVER. You don’t need it to 10-65 crashes. If they give you a 1990 ford crown vic just be 105 everyday but if they give you a 3 digit step plan, then that’s worth a topic. MOVE ON. Most of dont care about equipment. My family will not be eating a glock or a berreta. Look at you idiots talk... this is what the highway patrol hires.. a bunch of Pussies.... yes PU$$ies. Man up and shut the phuck up already.
    Yes pay raises are important no doubt, but you need go see a psychiatrist. I have had to draw my weapon on duty plenty of times, and I pray to God I never have to take someone down before my career ends. This year's trooper of the year had to though and there are plenty others as well who have had that unfortunate choice. Sad you are so angry, maybe you should find another job!

    As someone who was intimately involved in such procurements by a number of agencies, I can say without fear of contradiction that the reason Glock has the lion's share of LE bidness is COST. Do they work? Absolutely. I'm a fanboy. However, others work as well and just about any modern striker-fired handgun is more than adequate for LE work. In the final analysis though, the bottom line is what put most of them out there, especially where the agency is doing the buying.
