We just switched over to 147 HST this last qual, our previous duty round was 135+p federal (LE9T5). Previous department was 124+p GD, still surprised how crummy the inside of the federal rounds look compared to the GD's. The 135's looked like the inside was about to disintegrate.
They sure are purdy.

I prefer not to say precisely where I live online, but I live in a rural Western area. Our local Sheriff's Office approves .45 and 9mm, and they issue 230-grain HST and 147-grain HST. The 230-grain HST has been used in two OIS incidents with excellent threat-stopping results.

Portland PD has been issuing the 147gr HST for quite awhile.

My office issues the 147gr HST in 9mm and 180gr for .40SW; eventually we will issue their 230gr for .45ACP but we've still got a bunch of RA45T in stock.
I hope this isn't too much of a drift- I wasn't sure of whether or not to start a different thread... Besides NYPD, what other agencies issues/has had successes with the 124 +P Gold Dot?
It is the DHS/ICE issued duty round for personally owned 9mm's. The agency issues SIG 40s with HST but currently has about 3,000 personally owned/ Agency approved Glocks on the street as either duty guns or off duty / BUGs. Gold dot has been the 9mm duty round since at least the mid 2000's with no noted failures.
