At the very minimum, whatever law enforcement possesses. After all, they are dealing with same unsavory citizens you and I have to live amongst. Plus ordinary folk have NO right to police protection.

At the bare minimum whatever the fed govt possesses, since they are buying with my tax dollars. I have the right to be equally armed.

Well, you did use the words “at the very minimum”. So, guess you’re off the hook, sorta :)

Sadly, most police forces have gone to the 9mm for standard issue which is marginal at best for knock down/ killing power. However, it’s redeeming quality is that it’s easier to shoot by females and casual shooter which is the category most uniformed police fall in. And, being the first criteria of a shoot out is to hit the target, the 9mm gives these folks the best chance. And, that it will hold around 15 rounds as compared to say a 1911 which holds only 7 rounds. Just FYI, I am old school and carry some sort of 1911 variation most of the time. But, I am guilty of dropping my little Pocketlite 380 in my pocket from time to time, lol :)
