H&K contact needed
My department has asked me to research, write, and give a presentation on allowing our Officers to carry H&K pistols. I have started my research online and will be contacting H&K directly this week or early next week.
What I'm asking for here is if someone has a good contact with H&K I can call and "pick there brain" so to speak. Someone who knows there stuff and can back it up with literature.
It is a rarity for my department to even suggest let alone contemplate allowing Officers another choice when it comes to firearms so I need solid info that supports the product.
Thank you for your time,
SJ

Not going to argue the quality of their gear, but HK consistently seems to have about the worst customer service I have ever seen.
Good thing their stuff tends to be reliable, 'cause I doubt that you will be able to get service or spare parts in a reasonably timely fashion.
Might your question be able to be addressed by the HK Tactical staff? They may be easier to get in touch with.

Smokin Joe,
My brother has been an instructor and armorer @ FBI Firearms Training Unit for
decades. He is also an ex-police chief. I'd like to think he may be of some assistance.
Send me a PM & I'll try for a link-up if you are interested.
