Are you going to have the Glock Special pricing available? I manage armed and unarmed security people. I would like to pass this information on to my people. Thanks.

We should have very competitive pricing to them. We are not allowed in there but we want to earn your business so if you see they have cheaper pricing please let us know.

does that mean that you have your SOT? Are you willing to sell AOWs to the public?

I'm no expert but it sounds legit. If regular stores could sell glocks for $400 to cops, wouldn't they all do it? I've also been trying to find items like Winchester ranger SXT ammo but am told that Winchester will not allow it to be sold to anyone but law enforcement.
Off list guns and hi cap mags we can't buy anyway so who cares! As far as other duty gear I'm not sure what they mean but maybe it's in their regular stores as well. I've seen lots of duty gear in Cerritos recently.

Warrior One in Riverside is open to the public. Anyone can walk in, They also participate in the Glock Blue Label program. So I'm not sure about that statement. Not trying to kick you guys in the balls or anything. Good luck.

From what we were told we are not able to sell the Glock blue labels in our regular stores unless it was for GSSF. Maybe other stores are breaking the rules.
Besides Glock though there are other contracts we are going to be trying to obtain so we can not only service LEOs but also the departments. Two companies I can think of off the top of my head that won't allow us to have civilians in the store if we offer these certain LE dept only products are Winchester and Taser. Both companies have a huge LE market that they are very strict with. I challenge any store open to the public to call them and get their restricted product (it won't happen). The point of the LE store is not to keep the public away. Our regular store is right next to the LE store and anything sold in the LE store that is legal for civilians to purchase is available in our regular store. What won't you see...Off roster guns, hi cap mags, batons, switchblades, and things of that nature. The reason we are opening this store is to get into a market we were previously not able to get into. If we want to be able to sell LE restricted items (like certain Taser, Winchester and Federal product lines) this is what we had to do. There are also certain companies that would not allow us into their LE discount program till we had a LE only store such as S&W. |

Thank you for bringing this law to my attention. We do not have any and have not started selling any as of yet but we had planned on it based on the fact that we were told LE was exempt. We will look into this more before we make a final decision.

12020(b)(12) The sale to, possession of, or purchase of any weapon, device, or ammunition, other than a short-barreled rifle or short-barreled shotgun, by any federal, state, county, city and county, or city agency that is charged with the enforcement of any law for use in the discharge of their official duties, or the possession of any weapon, device, or ammunition, other than a short-barreled rifle or short-barreled shotgun, by peace officers thereof when on duty and the use is authorized by the agency and is within the course and scope of their duties. Seems like it falls in line with selling AWs. Dealers can legally sell AWs to departments and can sell them to LE with a letter. |

(c) Any weapon, device, or ammunition, other than a short-barreled rifle or a short-barreled shotgun, that is sold by, manufactured by, exposed or kept for sale by, possessed by, imported by, or lent by, any person who is in the business of selling weapons, devices, and ammunition listed in Section 16590 solely to the entities referred to in subdivision (a) when engaging in transactions with those entities. 16590.

I'll take the bait...
The law is the law no matter how you slice it. People have been looking for years for the 'exemption they know exists' and noone has ever presented it. Its clearly allowable on the federal level, but extremely unclear if the federal statutes preempt the CA State laws on the matter. So, since I took the bait, do you pick up the gauntlet? |

More shops used to have Blue Label Pricing but Glock found out a percentage of shops were taking advantage of it "Selling blue label glocks to LEO/Military full price and pocketing the rest of the money" and they "glock" are more strict about blue label shops.

California Penal Code 17515, 2012 edition, is a peace officer exemption for possession of prohibited weapons. It has to be authorized for the enforcement of law or ordinance in any city or county. This means that each officer will have to check with their individual agency's policies to see if they can or not. It seems to be okay for officers to carry prohibited weapons as long as they have permission from their agency. I don't understand why people get their panties in a bunch over LEO's carrying weapons the general public can't have. Ease up.

In penal-code-ese 17515 exempts specific sections of code as listed in PC 16580. I don't see PC 21510 listed there... 17515. Nothing in any provision listed in Section 16580 prohibits a police officer, special police officer, peace officer, or law enforcement officer from carrying any equipment authorized for the enforcement of law or ordinance in any city or county. |

I agree - but from the OP it is indeed about his intent to sell them in his new store.
