First question, how does one pronounce skiving:
Sky-ving?
Second, who issues it? I know San Diego PD does if I've read correctly, and my local Sheriff's Dept. does (they told me so). Just got some Gov. contract HST .40 from Lucky Gunner, and was wondering.
Yes, skiving is pronounced sky-ving.
No idea who issues it.
180 grain HST is the .current 40 cal issue round for DHS agencies including ICE, CBP/USBP, the USCG, and FPS (Federal Protective Service).
It comes in generic white boxes.
It has worked well in actual use.

San Francisco Sheriff, San Francisco PD.
San Jose PD.
Facts matter...Feelings Can Lie
Sacramento PD
My PD does, in 9, 40 and 45. Works well. We shoot a lot of people.

Everything I post I do so as a private individual who is not representing any company or organization.
Los Angeles sheriff issues 147HST. Not sure if they switched the 45acp yet
We will when we transition to 9mm, which is now slated for this Fall Inservice.
It's one of a few authorized rounds at my agency, in 147gr, 180gr, and 230gr flavors.
