Semi-auto pistol ammo. Many of the govt agencies use H and K, or Berretta pistols. 40 million rounds per year sounds enormous.??

NCIS and the Postal Inspection service use Sigs. The Inspection Service now uses 40 Cal. as well.

I carry a Glock 22 so I will continue searching out every box of .40 I can find. Unless I can find where they store the 200 million rounds......

Actually, almost all of them use either Glock (FBI) or Sig Sauer (Sec. Service), with, I’d guess, about a 40 vs. 60 percent (rough) respective share between the two. While there may be some other brands (S&W comes to mind), I’m personally not aware of any federal LE agency that uses either H&K (postal guys maybe??) or Beretta handguns as issued weapons. There may be one here or there and there also may be agents or officers that use these themselves as duty or off-duty weapons.

Anyone have any more recent info that shows this wrong?
