C r L O D I P O L I C E D E P A R T M E N T M e m o r a n d u m To: Chief Williams From: Captain Adams Date: May 26, 1992 Subject: Issue Firearm & Related Safety Equipment PROBLEM: The Lodi Police Department currently issues a six shot 38 caliber revolver. The weapons issued are Smith St Wesson model 10's and 12's, most of which are in excess of twenty years old. Less than 5 out of 69 officers currently carry the issue weapon, most opting for a semi-automatic pistol. ISSUES: The following issues need to be considered when exploring the possibility of purchase of a new issue weapon for the Lodi Police Department; 1) Officer Safety: is officer safety adequately addressed with the current Z8 revolver? The answer is no. The age of the weapon, the weapon features tie no night sights), the rounds capacity and ease of reloading all relate to officer safety. This does not prejudge the revolver to be an inferior weapon, it merely recognizes the definite advantaoes an auto -loader possesses. In) Cost: Is the cost factor a barrier- to purchasing a new departmental issue weapon`:' No, although traditional budgeting avenues are not available due to the strained economic times. The option of utilizing Asset Seizure funds is a viable alternative. The utilization of Asset Seizure funds would be a legitimate usage of this restricted fund and would directly benefit officers involved in our- efforts to combat illicit drug usage. ) Weapon Selection: Per your- instructions a committee was f=ormed to evaluate semi -automatics and make a recommendation. That committee report is attacned in addendum A. 4) Policy Considerations: I would recommend that it be the policy of the Lodi Police Department to issue the highest quality safety equipment possible and that those officers issued such equipment be required to carry that equipment. Consideration may be given to those officers who have become accustomed to a personal firearm or holster and may wish to maintain that equipment under a "grandfather clause". In this event a new departmental firearm would not be issued. Detailed policy can be determined after approval. 5) Training Considerations: Although most officers are already conversant in the usage and nomenclature of various auto -loaders, it is critical that orientation training accompany any issuance of a new departmental weapon. I would anticipate that as all officers are eventually transitioned to auto -loaders, that training costs and time will be reduced as various calibers and makes will be reduced to one, thus making training more manageable. 6) Morale: Although the Lodi Police Department was the first department in San Joaquin County to recognize the benefits of the semi-automatic pistol and authorize it's optional use, back in 1985. We are now one of the last agencies in San Joaquin County to still provide as standard issue a 38 caliber revolver. Currently the Sheriff's office issues the Sig Sauer 9mm, Stockton PD issues the Sig Sauer 9mm, Manteca PD issues the Glock 9mm, CHP issues the Smith & Wesson 40mm, and Tracy PD is currently in the process of requesting semi- automatic pistols through the budget process. RECOMMENDATION: After review of the committee report I would recommend that the following elements of that report be adopted and the necessary asset seizure funds be allocated to open the bid process to purchase the following Sig Sauer 9mm Pistol; 1) 65 Sig P226 Pistols + one extra magazine Total -#37,859.90 2) 4 Sig P225 Pistols for administration Total -t 2,149.36 3) 20 Sig P226 Pistols for Reserves, New hires $11,649.20 4) 85 Safety holsters $ 6,035.00 5) B5 Magazine Pouches $ 1,700.00 6) 4 P225 holsters $ 188.00 Estimated Total $59,581.46 I have eliminated the extra weapons for Detectives and Administrative Sergeant, as these are temporary assignments and would add additional cost to the proposal which I cannot justify.
