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.
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.

It was universally Glock 17 and 19 at my agency but most did 19 because we generally didn’t open carry. Most guys went this way. You could carry whatever as long as you qualified with it. One of RAC’s carried a snub nose .38 some carried SIG. They cracked down shortly before I left on getting too far out in left field with it. Especially on the M4 and .308/7.62 variants. They didn’t like the illusion of agents with tricked out weapons.

True. Those guys have to qual with certain weapons. From there they can carry what they please.
