Title: What does HPD do with their surplus handguns?
Post by: dogman on January 19, 2014, 03:03:39 PM: Quote from link:
Starting in 2014, the Honolulu Police department will start to implement a 3 year plan to replace their older Smith & Wesson Model 5906 (which are no longer in production) with the Glock 17.

Post by: asdfjkl on January 19, 2014, 11:19:33 PM: I heard from an HPD buddy of mine that Glock made a deal with them to trade in the S&W 5906s for a good deal on the G17.

Post by: Kanakamaoli23 on January 23, 2014, 06:43:03 AM: My cop friend told me he believes they are going to allow the officers who carry them the chance to buy it for cheap. But that's just a rumor he heard.
