Re: Standard issue police sidearm
Every individual department has it's own standard. There might be duplication between departments but that is accidental rather than being driven by any sort of inter-departmental standarization requirement.

City of Reading uses S&W .40's. Reading uses only S&W, even for personally owned backup guns. The little department by me uses Beretta, the one down the road uses Glock, and another nearby one uses Sig.

York City issues Glock 22. (.40S&W) and so do several departments in York County including YCSO.

It is my impression that the Glock 22 .40 caliber pistol is the most common sidearm for LEO.
