What do LEO's load?
Today I found myself talking about LEOS and duty equipment. Topic ended up going to duty firearms and got me thinking... what kind of rounds to LEO's use on duty? Is there some kind of regulation in place that makes them use FMJ, JHP or something else exclusively or are they free to choose themselves?
Just because 'perfect' is impossible does not mean we should settle for 'broken'.

All depends on the individual agency and in some instances, like PRNJ, state law.

Not sure exactly what they use, but they have to qualify with what they carry.
I know a constable who provides his own ammunition (and has to qualify with what he carries as well); not sure if that's how it works for cops as well or not.

I don't know of any department that uses FMJ in their service pistols.
I am not a lawyer and nothing I say should be construed as legal advice.
