Would anyone here be more likely to get a pistol if it were labeled or stamped with a specific department's name or government organization? The reason I ask is because every now and then at two local gunstores in my area I see police buybacks that float in. (Nothing special like a 1st gen Glock 22, or an old Berretta.) The Glocks say Walla Walla Police Dept. on the slide and I've seen Wash. State Patrol Model 92's before. But yesterday I saw a Sig Sauer P226DAK in 9mm with the Dept. of Homeland Security's barcode/name on the side. I wasn't aware that they bought 9mm, only .40/.357 between the 226,229, and 239. Does this add value in anyone's mind, detract from the gun, or do nothing at all to you. I usually hate anniversay models, or promo guns like Glock's Homeland Defender package, but this one seems different. What do you guys think?
