Hi August,
Nope I'm way down in Texas. I could tell from my online perusing that the two agencies existed but of course don't know how their firearms might be identified. I'll probably send off for a letter on this one to document where it was issued. I'm sort of enjoying getting a few PD documented pistols in the collection.
Thanks,
Earl

BCPD might be the Baltimore COUNTY police, which if you are not from the area, is a different agency altogether. Baltimore County surrounds Baltimore (city), but is its own entity. Apologies if you are from the area and already knew this.
