Just wondering. I remember working with some who used it, others who were issued it but then bought something else approved for use. I'm thinking late 90s but I may be wrong. Thank you.

Your late 90's seems right to me.
When I started with DOJ in 1997, all of the DUSMs I worked with were carrying Glocks. Initially, they were split between 9mm and .40 cal. Post 9/11 for sure, they went to .40 cal. as the issued pistol.
For FY 2020, they are moving back to Glock 9 mm-17s and 19s.
As has been discussed in other posts, USMS SOG is issuing Staccatos. I have it on good authority that they are actually issued 2 pistols-one with the Deltapoint RDS and one without.
VCDGRIPS, two Staccato pistols or one Staccato and the standard issue Glock?
Either case, as I look back over a useless life, I should have listened to my father's uninformed, but accurate advice, to become a fed. Of course, I think I might have favored USMS over dad's recomedation of the FBI.
Staccatos
I know the USMS office locally all got new Glock 22s issued in 2004 . . .
Didn’t they authorize the SP2340 for a while?
