Just because LAPD swat uses something doesn't make it that great. The USSS and the FAMS use SIG. Does that mean SIG is the end-all, be-all since it is trusted to guard the president? No, I don't think that, either. It just means they are the ones that won the contract.


No thanks, Glock for me when it counts.
Interesting. My neighbor loves the 1911 and has several. Then again, I know he hasn't shot thousands of rounds through them.

I agree about the guns and contracts. I used to carry a Glock and really liked it. Now I have to carry a Sig, which is fine since they're all 'tools in my toolchest.' However, I don't shoot as well as I did with the Glock. Maybe I'm getting older, maybe the gun just doesn't fit well with me.

I hope we go back to the Glock, and so do many others I work with.
