Any cops? Yes. Significant amount? idk

they're just going to go with more and newer barrier blind soft points

if police dont have 855a1 then im not worried about it

If im going against someone that does then chances are im fucked anyways

I'm sure SWAT for big cities does

although we might see them take a different direction towards mil rounds as body armor continues to proliferate in conus

at the very least

easy fix for that then

If anything Mk318 and Mk262 are going to be more likely police adoption rounds

Im not gonna live in a big city

Only problem being USMC issue makes production lower

Wouldn't be surprised if SWAT is starting to issue M855A1 from DOD gibsmedats

Can you buy m855a1 right now?

tsx barnes doe

don't have any knowledge about that tho so it's all hearsay

I never looked into it

yes

Yeah

off gunbroker easily, just expensive

You can but its not cost friendly

small arms procurement for small departments is usually done through the same channels we would buy guns

a lot of ARs in patrol cars are usually semi only

Think i just saw a listing for 10 bullets, not the cartridge, for 25 dollars

because NFA shit is still a pain in the ass even when you're the police

Yeah it's typically $1-$2 per round

I remember there was a big fuss about body armor

60 rds for 90 dollars

i feel like police priorities are barrier penetration, then expansion/lack of overpenetration, then accuracy, then body armor penetration

following some chimpout or another

>accuracy

and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the impetus for a decent amount of SWAT departements to get AP loads for their guns

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

@CTL why do you like Barnes specifically? 50gr is nice against steel but it's not great out of 1:7

Since acquisitions would be heavily swayed by politics

>accuracy

>police

>NYPD 12lb Glock triggers

>UPS

NYPD isn't a good example

but you know how people love to buy stuff they think will make them more accurate

even though they suck
