What was wrong with the ISP G21's?

[DNS]

Was wondering what was wrong with the ISP G21's that made them go to the sig 227?

Because sig's are awesome and glocks are terrible?

Good "Internet" answer.

I think they had 17's.

From what I was told by one of the senior state police folks, the mags did not always drop free. I don't recall him saying much about reliability issues different from that, but there may be more. The mags not dropping free was a big issue though.

That's what I understand, although I have not talked to a Trooper that had that issue.

They did...not too long ago.

Then they got a new Superintendent. He wanted back into .45 ACP.

They had 17's, then the old Sup. went to the 21's right before he left. The new guy came in a went with Sig. I was told Sig did a even trade plus new leather. But I could be wrong.

We need an ISP "gun of the day" calendar.

Officers will look at the calendar and see what pistol they are carrying that day.

Nice use of state funds.

I just wish they would go to something else soon so I could get a lightly used 227 cheap.

That and some slides sticking to the rear when units would sling shot rack the slide. AND on a significant number of weapons spent brass being ejected into the face and eyes of the shooter.
Many varied problems.

Ah, remember the good old days?... when police trade-ins were LESS expensive than new pistols.

Just have to wait on a new superintendent.

Uh...yeah. I heard their so unwanted that their going bankrupt.

Surprised no one beat me to it.

No doubt. I like where it says in Midwest's flyer:"In service for one year or less". I wonder if I could use that line on my wife every time I wanted a new firearm to replace the perfectly fine one that I have. Of course, she wouldn't know the difference.

I heard at a LGS ISP are switching to Ruger LCPs
