as far as i know prior to mid-1970 almost all police dept's in USA were issuing revolvers as a standard sidearms. At the present time i belive most PD's issue some sort of selfloaders.
But, maybe some dept's still issue old venerable sixguns as a STANDARD sidearms? If yes, please tell me what depts and what guns?
another question is - were ever Ruger DA revolvers, like Security Six, Speed Six, Service Six or GP100 popular among LE troops? were these guns ever issued as a STANDARD sidearms by some Police Dept's?
what else brands of sixguns (other than Colt, S&W and maybe Ruger) police officers used on any larger scale?
TIA.
