Supplemented, not replaced. I still have my P226R at work most days.
Up until a few months ago a SIG P228 or P229 in a CompTac Infidel IWB, spare mag in one of their pouches, and a Spyderco Delica. More recently a fullsize P320 slide on an X-Carry frame in a DavTach...
Here’s my cut 1950 Model Outdoorsman for comparison. The Patridge front was reshaped into a ramp when it was remounted.

Steve was a one of a kind gentleman. I appreciate the time he spent answering my questions and his advice throughout my career on navigating the politics of policing.
When Marie texted me I was...
Thank you for all of your thoughts and suggestions.
I can see the advantage of being concealed all the time. At this point that option is only afford to our Narotics investigator, or if...
I work in Investigations for a small rural Sheriff's Office. Daily dress ranges from a button-up shirt and jeans or khakis to the ubiquitous 5.11 Tuxedo. For the most part concealment isn't a...
When I went through the local community college-run academy in 2009 we shot 500 rounds through a Glock 17 and 5 slugs through an 870. They've since added a short AR block.
My SO has an annual $240...
Local PD does. They went from bring your own to mandatory issued Gen 4 G17s and G26s.
For me it depends. I work plainclothes 99% of the time. If dress allows I try to keep a 642, Shield, or...
Sometimes you wind up in interesting places. This was a theft follow up the last time the Sabine River flooded.8670
When dispatch calls you at home and asks if you'll take a call because both patrol deputies are on the other end of the county.
When you never get below 90 going to an assault in progress and it...
I bought the collection as a downloadable PDF. It was a disappointment. The newer stuff is fine, but some of the older ones are such poor quality scans that they're unreadable.
The "blood gun" article HCM referred to is "Parking Lot Shootout: The Jim Vollink Incident." Jim shot that old Ithaca until the locking lugs on the slide were peened. He had Bob Kreiger fit an...
About a year ago one of our patrol deputies found a 4" S&W M28 in a dope house. No hit on the serial number, but there was a Texas DPS issue number on the frame. I figured it was a long shot, but I...
My first day of field training: "If you have to hit someone with your flashlight, turn it off first. A lightsaber doesn't look good on video. But if you have to throw it turn it on so you can find...
Thank you. In the early '90s our admin lieutenant's father was a FFL and ordered 3 or 4 CS-1s for patrol deputies and reserves. This one was put back until two years ago when he sold it to me. A...

I recently picked up a SureFire G2X LE after doing a house search and not liking the low-then-high switching of my P2X Fury. Since picking up the LE it's also displaced my old 6P with Malkoff dropin...
Two years ago I rescued a PM12S from our armory that needed cleaning. So far they haven't asked for it back. It's somewhat chunky but pretty accurate and very controllable. The biggest drawback...
A lot of our recovered stolen guns are taken from unlocked vehicles. For a while there it seemed like Glocks in .357 SIG and Sigma .40s were the front runners. A new sporting goods store just...
Looking through some of the threads here made me dig out a photo of a "project" gun that's never quite gotten off the ground. A few years ago I found this Model of 1950 .38/44 Outdoorsman at a small...
One of our former deputies who worked dispatch carried a Taurus PT 24/7 9mm. She quit soon after to work at the post office. An academy classmate whose career was also brief carried a HiPoint 9mm...
