U.S. Coast Guard has selected and begun fielding the Glock

[Wendell]

After careful evaluation of existing federal contracts supported by Glock, the USCG selected to purchase through the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) contract the Glock 19 Gen5 MOS as the standard service pistol. USCG acquisition objective was fulfilled by Glock within four months of the initial purchase request. CBP’s extensive solicitation process, which included independent testing by the Institute of Justice Laboratories, comprehensive field evaluations, and direct input from 16,000 CBP law enforcement personnel, helped guide the selection by USCG.

I remember a training exercise back in 2007. Delta, SEALS, FBI, were all running G19s. I figured at the time good enough for them, good enough for anybody in uniform.

Now US SOF is slowly switching to the M17 / M18....those and glocks are both good guns.
