He didn't move into Putnam Co did he? You can't throw a rock there without hitting a trooper!


In addition to the 4566 w/ Streamlight M3, WVSP also issues a Reminton 870 and S&W M&P 15 to each trooper. For uniformed duty you have no choice but the issued sidearm. However, pretty much anything you can qualify with, .380 or larger is approved as a secondary. For non-uniformed duty (like the plain clothes BCI guys) or special details not requiring a duty belt you can carry your secondary.
