Most US government agencies issue the P229 now mostly based on the round usage desired. The P226 MK24 is still used in military to some extent.


I've got pretty close connection to FLETC. So far I think I have only seen is HSI issue the P226, complete with red dot.

Most agencies seem to still be Glock 19 or 17. There are some variations, but it has been a month or two and my mind forgets things.

I have a few friends I served with a couple of different agencies, and they are being issued the P229 but different variations.

My friend in the US Marshalls carries an issued P229 .357 SIG

My friend in DHS carries an issued P229 DAK .40 S&W

Some other guys working under the DOJ are still using the P226 or P228.

The P226 is a great weapon and many foreign organizations I worked with were using the P226 or P228.

But when I served you could carry whatever you could qual with.
