I'm a little surprised to hear that it's your choice.
Yeah, nobody is forced to carry a long gun for us. Way more people want to carry rifles than they have training slots in patrol rifle programs so there's no shortage of volunteers. I think everyone still qualifies on shotguns, and you can either get an issued one or bring your own from home. When I started, there weren't enough shotguns to go around but I think there's plenty now.
