My father-in-law was the police chief in a small Nebraska town until he passed away. My sister-in-law recently became a police officer in the same town. She asked the new chief if the department had any cleaning kits that might have come with their S&W semi-auto handguns. He said that the former chief (our mutual father-in-law) was big into cleaning the firearms, but the police department just doesn't do that any more. ***?!?!
Furthermore, my sister-in-law says that the other officers take their firearms to the firing range, and, after countless rounds, start having issues with the firearm. They then start to complain about the firearm and talk the city into spending more $ on new ones.
I would think that anyone who expects a gun to work in a life threatening situation would take great care in maintaining their firearm. Am I wrong?
