6/24/2015 1:52:14 PM Reply      or ReplyNewSubject Section 4: Guns/General Subject: Police 1930 CPD                          Msg# 923651 From: Jerry Webb     Joined 10/31/2001 To: Harvey Goldman (Read)     Joined 1/9/2001

In the 1930s it was common to have a Thompson SMG in a two man car. Nowadays a two man car has a Remington 870 or a M-16 on board (the M-16 is semi-auto only). The M-16s were given to us by the US Army at no cost. When I was hired by the PD we had Army surplus M-1A rifles in the armory!

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Jerry: Thanks for the update.Wow, walking patrol wearing those boots! Was it common to issue Thompsons to patrol officers for special situations? Harvey
