- HCF PRESENTS:
Common notation is many Officers SOP Manuals 1900-1985, “the service revolver will be an American made Colt or Smith and Wesson 6 shot 38/357 revolver with 4 inch barrel, fixed sights, blue or black finish, grips either Black or brown. Only service ammunition, 38 Special 158 grain lead roundnose will be used. All private purchase revolvers will be inspected and approved by the armorer prior to use on duty. No further modifications will be made. Revolvers with 6 inch barrels or adjustable sights may be allowed for duty use if officer is involved in competitive shooting or SWAT team and approved by the Chief". Some departments allowed stainless steel and Rugers revolvers but most went traditional. Movement away from 158 grain round nose to hollowpoints will be discussed more in Part 2. The FBI Miami Shootout made a sea changes after 1986.

Very nice bibliography on handguns, some of THE BEST authorities on the subject!! Thank you for sharing this compilation!!😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Very clear explanation. Here in Brazil we had the same problem with ammo. Training with one and work with another. Congrats for the video. Waiting for the next.
Fascinating history of police revolvers and ammo!
The BEST social studies teacher ever..Mr. Gurski!
Love these videos!! Was hoping to hear more about Elmer Keith and the creation of the K frame mag. Don’t forget SF, NC state police and some departments in TX used .41 mag model 57 & 58s
Bill Jorden proposed the idea of a .357 magnum in a K frame to S &W.
Great video
Very informative
memory lane
I think my speakers must be cracked
No. We experimented with a clip on mike.
I introduced a new lapel microphone in order to reduce background noise and increase the speech volume from Stan. It still needs some adjustment.
That half moon sight on your five inch would make it a pre model 10 maybe post war no?
The 38 was a pile of shit caliber for this country. The First 357 Colt Python came out in 1955. My grandfather used the Colt police special in a Ted Blocker Swivel holster! My uncle used a Smith and Wesson model 29 in 1971 after he came home from Vietnam.
