Basically the news calling pistols "police grade" just makes it sound scary to the uninformed.

Rockj river makes "Leo only" rifles that we sell, they are the same as the operators, just with a different roll print on the mag well that says "LEO Only." These are Semi Auto rifles as we are not a class III dealer, but still LEO only sales. Same with the Glock LEO packages, they come with one extra magazine and with factory Tritiums, which Glock doesn't offer on civilian models any more.
Also during the AWB (assault weapons ban) they had LEO only marked magazines, these had more than 10 rounds. If a mag was made before 1994 when the ban was instated, it was grandfathered in and called "pre-ban" normally stamped on the mag or receiver. THose were worth a premium because they were grandfathered in and legal in most* places. Now pre ban mags and firearms don't command any premium other than Pre ban Colt AR15s as collectors.

I was refering to the lame ass article. I'm pretty sure theres no difference between most leo firearms and civilian firearms. I bet my AR is of higher quality than the ones in the city cops cruisers here. I dont even think they're select fire. I bet I could even do a mag change faster with my bullet button installed.

I would be curious to see this. I've never had to use one of those dumbass California compliance parts so I don't know how smooth it can be...

my mags have a nub on them thats the "tool" to drop the mag. im not saying its super fast or anything but i feel ive gotten pretty quick at it practicing. i had it set up with a standard mag release in AZ and i felt i was slower that way. i probably shoot more often than most of the regular cops here and probably have more practice with it too.

That's cool. Nice little way to give CA gun laws the middle finger. :D
