Due to the recent opinion piece penned by the AG, our Sheriff will no longer issue letters for AR-15 (RAW).

Welcome to the club... Our boss made that decision before the AG put his opinion out. It's going to take some kind of active shooter incident or a Deputy getting outgunned for the admin to figure out that we need rifles instead of shoulder fired 9mms. It sucks. -
Sorry to hear that Triad...tis a very sad day.
Posting this in the LE forum, I just wanted to say that any pro 2A person who for whatever reason (jealousy, contempt, feeling "un-equal") and feels that LE should not be have ARs really needs to examine their pro 2A.

If I were in charge I would make a law that says all good people can have any firearm they want and all bad people cannot have a firearm.... Hmmm.. :-)Comment

The stupid thing is that these people argue about if they can't have it, then LEO's can't either, forget that when they get the guns taken away from LEO's, they lose all hope of it ever being available to the civilians too.
At least with LEO's getting them, the market is still there and we can change it and expand it eventually. With the LE market gone, what incentive is there to bring more of those guns into CA?
Stupid short-sighted people.I like guns

Are there any ARs out in the field on your department? I feel naked without mine while on duty. To me, it's an officer safety issue. It's not something you take out everyday, but it sure is comforting to know you have it.Comment

We have about ~200 Patrol deputies. 1/4 of those have AR's....1/2 of that 1/4 use their personal (purchased) AR's on duty.Comment

While I am sure that sentiment wouldn't play well with some outside the business, it is spot on.
Were I in that position, I'd be inclined to agree with you that featureless might indeed be the most logical alternative. And imagine the looks you'd get showing up to a call or to training sporting a (found by court to not be a thumbhole stock) U-15. While it's still not optimal, it's certainly better than some type of grip glove or the like.I am resolved to go featureless and be exceptionally good with what I have.

It promotes an "us vs them" mentality. Officers are subject to the same laws as non-officers. Unless you are .mil, you are a civilian. Period.Originally posted by pullnshoot25Originally posted by aileronOriginally posted by Neil McCauleyComment

I'm not a fan of much of the way modern LE operates but, denying them one form of lethal force tool over a different lethal force tool is retarded. All guns in the hands of LEO's are weapons meant to stop lethal encounters. Which part of lethal was unclear to someone?
Fine, if they're going to cockblock you on penetration, counter with a flying train wreck. 12ga slugs. Body armor doesn't matter against a slug, bad guy will still probably die even though it probably won't penetrate the vest (the vest is liable to penetrate the bad guy though). Then issue FN5-7 pistols and a mag of AP to every officer.Comment

The "sense" is a perception and "perception is your reality", and IMO that perception is short sighted and incorrect.
We are all first and foremost citizens of this great United States of America.
CA law gives peace officers a little more authority (830PC etc.) and to call for diminishing LE right/ability to own firearms is anti-2A."Bruen, the Bruen opinion, I believe, discarded the intermediate scrutiny test that I also thought was not very useful; and has, instead, replaced it with a text history and tradition test."
