Alright...I'm not taking this sitting down...
There's nothing civil about this war.
I came home with a new Glock 47 day before yesterday. While dry firing it, I thought to myself, “This gun is a plastic piece of shit BUT it will run like a scalded dog if you do your part.” Can’t get over how basic and how capable it is. Also, there is more to selecting a firearm than the trigger.
To wit:

OK, you guys just reinforced why I have such a deep attachment to Glocks.
I keep a spare internals kit in my range bag. Not much larger than a deck of cards.
Now I'm just an old ER RN, not LEO. But an officer (while I was working in New Orleans) some 20 years ago, gave me a Peerless key and told me "bad guys use cuffs too".
Well, I never happened into that scenario but I have on several occasions had to uncuff a prisoner to give them emergent care (like blood pouring out of them or them having an MI) and the Deputies with the patient said their Shift Leader would be in the ER soon...with the key.
Stuff happens.
The Key ring on the right always rode appendix area in my scrubs. My old "John Wayne" (from my C-Rat days), a Peerless key, and some sort of screwdriver device I've had since the '70's.
The key ring on the left (either clipped to my undershirt while in scrubs) or in my left jean pocket with in my "people clothes" has Glock armorers tool (God knows where or how long I've had that) and an extra cuff key.
I just didn't want you guys to think all of us old civvies aren't wise to your ways nor appreciate them.
Oh, and the fine LEO folks I know have saved my ass on more than one occasion. Thank you!
I still keep a handcuff key on my key ring. I stopped keeping a handcuff key in my shoe laces since I retired. Funny how people keep little reminders from their past around. My primary key split ring is actually from a grenade. Good times
