Let me be up front and tell you the Streamlight PolyStinger DS LED flashlight is one of the best flashlights I have ever tested for police work. I have field tested this flashlight for two months, and I have been absolutely impressed by its performance. In fact, it is now my primary light, replacing my personally owned, full-sized Streamlight SL-20, and it puts my department issued MagCharger to shame.
I found the PolyStinger DS LED to be very bright, very durable, and have an excellent run-time. Not only was I impressed by it, at least four other officers on my squad have already purchased this light after seeing mine. Several other officers have said they are setting some of their money aside to buy one also.

Since the Pelican 7060 uses LED technology instead of a less efficient incandescent bulb, run time is 1.5 hours. Not bad, especially considering my department issued
Frankly, I don’t think the flashlight is pretty. In fact, I think the Pelican 7060 LED flashlight is a bit ugly. That’s ok, though. My Glock 19 is pretty ugly too. But my Glock has never had a malfunction even though I have put more than 5000 rounds through it. Ugly is good.
Manufactured by several different companies in the United States and Israel, these jackets are designed to provide light protection against handgun rounds. Not all of these jackets are not tested using the same NIJ standards that normal body armor uses, so I would not expect them to offer the same level of protection. However, for the officer working a plain clothes detail, or a citizen with special concerns, these jackets may offer some protection when you would otherwise have none.
I’m not completely sold on the idea of laser sighting devices on police duty guns. However, I am becoming more accepting of the idea. I used to be 100% against lasers on duty guns, but I guess after I was issued my first Taser, I began to see the real benefit of using a laser sighting device. If you like lasers, then you know who Crimson Trace is.
This is how they have done it: they have married the venerable .32 caliber handgun bullet with the higher pressures allowable due to the strength of modern metallurgy. The end result? How about a 115 grain Gold Dot running at 1300 fps out of a 3″ barrel? Oh, and that is with a 20% reduction in recoil as compared to a .357 Magnum.
Don’t worry about having to pay for expensive ammo just to practice with. This revolver will also chamber the following .32 caliber handgun rounds: .32 S&W, .32 S&W long, and .32 H&R Magnum.
The lights are both made in the United States of America, and should be hitting the stores now. Currently, they are available through any FNH dealer, but I suspect most of the cop suppliers and training supply stores will have them in the near future.
In this case, the counter-move is a small device that jams GPS signals, preventing you from using them to track your suspect. It plugs into a cigarette lighter and emits a low power (200mW) jamming signal that claims to prevent tracking and logging using a GPS signal. The device specs indicate that it will jam GPS signals that are between 2 to 4 meters away.
This laser mounts to the accessory rail of handguns, as opposed to an internal laser that LaserMax has produced in the past. The laser unit is supposed to be very light (about one ounce).
