Since I worked for two agencies that had approved firearms lists, I was about to say I was never issued a firearm, but then remembered that department #2 did issue a Remington 870 with folding stock. They were issued to the car, not the officer, but since the dept assigned the car, I guess they assigned to shotgun, too.

#2 also kept a limited number of 4" blued Model 19s for issue to officers who could not afford to purchase a sidearm or for temporary use while the officer's POW was being repaired.

Now that I see this has morphed into "what did you carry on duty":

4" S&W M28-2 as primary in uniform and on stakeouts
2" Colt Lawman MK III as backup in uniform and primary in investigations
2" Colt Agent as backup both assignments
High Standard .22 WRM derringer as Onion Field last ditch everywhere and as primary once or twice when I anticipated being frisked
39-2 as primary in investigations
469 (briefly) in investigations
Colt Commander .45 ACP on OCDETF assignment
Utterly unauthorized Winchester M94 Trapper .30-30 for solo surveillance on the open prairie.
