AHHH Portland,Maine. Is Chitwood still chief there? You know.....the guy who thinks non-LEO have no use owning guns. He and the NRA have had at it a few times.Weer'd Beard said:

he's gone now. This was after I was Exiled from Maine, but I'm super glad Chitwood is nolonger around. The old Port was HEAVILY patroled by officers DURRING THE DAY, but as soon as the bars opened up they'd all go home. Then when an incident happened late at night in a bar, Chitwood would just refuse to grant the bar a renewal of the liquor licence.

That's kinda like saying you can own all the guns you want, just ammo is illigal!Arrrr

I know......
Malden uses Sig .40's. The cop didn't know the model, but loved it. Looked like a compact size, like the the 229. Could have been a 226.

saugus = 2nd gen glock 22
Framingham -- Sig Sauers, either in .380 (detectives and police prosecutors), or 9mm or .45 (uniformed officers, mostly)
When I was a Reserve PO, our chief allowed us to buy our own duty weapon, as long as it used the same ammo as was issued to us. We qualified with our own weapon or one of four spares that they had (but hardly ever were cleaned).
All uniforms and equipment we purchased or needed was on our own dime. [Only exception was for the women who were appointed, they were given full uniforms out of the PD budget . . . none of the men appointed got that.]
Since we were allowed to work paid details/paid shifts after we graduated from the Police Academy, I used to rack up some heavy tax deductions on IRS 2106 forms (employee business expenses).
FT POs were given a certain amount of uniform equipment and an issue firearm (they could NOT buy and carry their own) and an annual allowance for uniform replacement and/or cleaning costs.

My buddy that went from NA to the State Police carries, I think, a Sig 226.
And when he was at NA. He said that he was allowed to buy his own Court gun. He had a Para C6 or C7 I believe that he would carry into court. I also think that he was allowed to buy his Bushmaster M4 as well. But his duty gun was provided.
I can double check the next time that I see him, but I'm pretty sure that's what he was saying.

Years ago we could carry what we wanted for court and I'd carry something different than issued on details too. That's all changed now. When "working" we must carry the issued firearm.
Our cops carry 40 cal glocks.
I hear the new buzz word is the 357SIG. Its a 357mag in an auto with the same power as the 125jhp 357mag as the 357sig 125jhp. Lets face it its a copy of the 7,62 tokarev on steroids but we won't go there because its a commie round.
