So it's official. LASD will be converting to the M&P9. At this time details are not fully worked out but from what it sounds like, right now the conversion will be voluntary, with deputies being able to keep their Beretta if they choose. I'm guessing most will convert. It also seems deputies will be able to purchase their old Beretta after they switch.
I'm pretty excited, both that I get another M&P, and also that I get to purchase the pistol I used for the academy, much of patrol, etc...
Recruits have been issued the M&P with Surefire X300 light for some time now, though the exact light model hasn't been determined yet...The X300 is a likely choice though.
Fun times! This will be the first major handgun conversion for the department since the adoption of the Beretta in 1989!
