Of course. One would have to try to misunderstand me to think I was referring to US police departments.

PS I decided I didn't need a single stack, single action, all steel, 9mm, the size and weight of a 1911. Cool guns, though. Very well made.

They looked like this.

I didn't try to mis-understand anything. Not that I don't believe you, but I've never seen a Swiss SIG p210 for under $1200 anywhere, including living in Switzerland in the early 90's. The suggestion that a a pile of them showed up for $400 a piece is hard to swallow.
