LEO's - Anyone using a 640-1?

[18DAI]

Any LEO's using a 640-1 as a BUG or off duty gun? What holsters are you using? Does your agency allow you to use 357 ammunition in it?

Any good vest holsters? Thanks! Regards 18DAI.

Can't answer the question but those pre-lock 640 Magnums sure are calling my name.

My buddy carries one I sold him a few years ago. Not sure what ammo he uses. It rides in an uncle mikes vest holster under his uniform shirt.

I prefer the lighter weight of my 340 M&P in the same holster with weak hand draw. Attached to the vest, I can't really even tell it's there (vest straps ran over the holster).

I can carry .357, but usually carry the issued ammo (.38 spl 135 gr. GDHP) for liability CYA. I rarely carry a back-up in my current assignment, but always do off-duty (Ruger LCP and/or same 340 M&P).

And my primary off-duty is a Glock 23 and somtimes 27. Issue is the Glock 22. And as much as I like to play with other guns, I trust my life to Glocks. They've never failed me, and that includes 2-3 years of 500-1,000 rounds a month when I used to shoot competition.
