High-tech fire power makes its way to the hips of Indiana State Police officers. The troopers got familiar with their new weapons this morning. State Police are turning in their old 40-caliber Berettas and being issued new 40-caliber Glocks.
Training on the new weapons is going on all this week. State police say they tried out several different models before deciding on the new weapons.
Firearm instructor Ritch Reynolds says the new weapons can take a beating, "The Glock has proven or shown it can operate in any kind of environmental situation, freezing weather, snow, drop it in the sand, water, mud, bring it up and it will perform."
The state police traded in the old firearms and received 1,300 new Glocks at no cost.
i like the no cost part...
