About what you would pay if you had someone do it...

It is nice to hear that at least one large police department isn't brainwashed completely by that Glock Perfection nonsense.

As for Colt's, a friend has my old 9mm commander, I'm working on him to get it back. Other than that I'm waiting to see whats available at the 2011 Shot Show, see what the big three are offering.

Well. if someone wants a black tactical (that's what all tactical stuff is now, right?) pistol with all sorts of tactical doo-dads on it, they won't be looking at a Colt. If they just want a traditional pistol, a Colt could fill the bill.
Glocks are ok for the average police officer as the average copper isn't really a shooter and is on the cheap side. They really don't need or want to spend a lot of money on a pistol. They're spending money on private school tuition for their kids.

Colt makes a few models that fit that description. They just aren't advertised as well as some of the other options out there.Originally Posted by daveohno

Just out of curiousity due to this new ruling, would someone who was military trained on the use of a 1911 pistol and carried one during the military be able to carry a 1911 pistol if they joined the LAPD. I'm working on a screenplay where the main character is former Special Forces working as a detective in the LAPD and he carries a Kimber.

Anyone who wants to carry the weapon system must first be in the "Expert" category ( 380 out of a possible 400 point system) He must then sign up for a spot in the transition class and pass the transition school. Outside schools are not approved due to the lack of Departmental control over the subject matter.

I'll just have him mention that he went through the transitional school then.
Thanks
