Equipment isues

Send us Fan MailToday's police equipment has come a long way. When Sarge started back in the early 80's, it was a revolver, 18 rounds of ammo, a slap and a pen. you got your vehicle, radio and rifle when you finished squad meetings. Now? It's take-home cars, cameras, computers with specific programs that write your reports, citations and arrest reports then prints them out in the car. Writing things by hand, like citations and arrest reports are neanderthal to most officers today. Penmanship is no longer needed. Weapon systems have changed and the accessories that come with them now cost more than the weapon itself. Let us know what changes have happened since you entered the profession.
