FBI Going Back to the 9mm?
It looks like the Federal Bureau of Investigation has had enough of the .40 S&W and will be going back to the 9mm Luger:
https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportun...=core&_cview=0
Per the "pre-solicitation"...
Class One Pistol: barrel length between 3.75" and 4.25"; with a minimum magazine capacity of 13 rounds.
Class Two Pistol: barrel length between 4.5" and 5.5"; with a minimum magazine capacity of 15 rounds.
Class One Training Pistol (Red Handle): deactivated with full articulation, red receiver and slide, night sights.
Class One "Man Marking" (a.k.a., "Simunitions") pistol: blue slide or slide with blue inserts.
I wonder if, once the "deal is done" whether the rest of Fed LEO-dom will follow suit as many of us (quizzically) do.

I think a lot of agencies have had enough of .40
Our agency went back to offering 9mm a few years ago.
