No offense guys but, this example is getting quite tiresome, if this is the only situation in 13 years that has pitted street cops against an unfair advantage then I would submit that perhaps the need is not that great.

We are taking AKs and shotguns of the street with more and more regularity in Chicago. I can get numbers if someone cares. New Year's Eve sounds like downtown Mosul in my westside district.

But, I cannot see the need to issue M-16s to street cops. FA fire should not be that "necessary" for peace officers.

FA fire is something that has very limited to no value in the urban setting so if you can get M-16 with the EVIL FA selector disabled does that pass muster with you, because it would be fine with me.
Isn't the M-16 the same as a AR-15 as a M-9 is the same as a Beretta 92FS?
Outcast what is your beef with having a patrol rifle locked in the car?
Dust Monkey, this militarization thing is getting tiresome.
