new duty gun ideas

[Danny46]

Glock don't have safeties. And before anyone says something. Trigger safety doesn't count.

Didn't know that, have never owned a Glock. I agree with that though, as far as buying you time should someone get the fire arm from you, a trigger safety is worthless. Also to note, the Sig P226 is not left hand friendly! The ergonomics are completely designed for a righty

SaFE ACtIOn!!!!!

I carry a Sig P226 (40 cal) and is an excellent fire arm. I've had it in the rain, dirt, etc and have never had any type of malfunction with it. They only "downside" I can think of as far as carrying for duty is the fact that it does not have a safety of any sort, so if it is taken out of your possession it can be immediately fired by someone who could otherwise fumble momentarily with an unfamiliar safety.

People might chuckle at this but my all-time favorite full-size pistol is a Beretta 92FS. For some reason I can just shoot so damn well with a full-size Beretta.

I'd of figured you'd suggested the most expensive HK ever made? Look how you've grown!!

CZU CZ75 SP-01 40SW DCK 12R NS Tactical (with night sights)

Come by and finger it.

I love my M&P, and the price is just right.

If you want a 45, hard to beat the m&p for the price

Fn, glock 41, your glock 35, or a full size M&P.



Edit. Put a glock 35 barrel in your 31

I'm not a big fan of the FNP tactical but I know a couple guys that love em. I am not a fan of the trigger and it's not my kind of ergonomic. Personally I like the HK tactical. Feels better in the hand.

FTWPD used to issue Sig P220 and I know a couple guys still carrying them great gun IMO

For what the FN or the Sig will run you can get a good 1911. Sig makes a few nice 1911's under 1K. Springfield Armory also has a few in the $8-900 range. Sure it's not a Willson or Ed Brown but those that I have shot have run perfect.

Glock 21 or 22. I don't see a reason to carry a 1911. Low round count, really light trigger, failure prone, expensive.

Glock mags are cheap, you are already used to the platform and trigger, and it will shoot no matter what the conditions. Not to mention weight difference

If I were a cop, and could get away with writing off a Wilson Combat pistol, I would go for it.

Hell yeah, I didn't even think about that.

[YALE]

I would stick with a glock since they are proven to take the abuse police put them through. Your life is depending on that gun to work. I would stay away from a 1911 just because they can be finicky unless they are built right, and those are so nicr and expensive you probably would not want to carry it on duty.
