Many police can and do carry their own firearms. I could see a rural or just general chud cop carrying a 1911, which is 7+1.

Wikipedia lists some use by SWAT and such but it doesn’t mention any normal police use in the US.

Makes it a bit easier to gauge if you’re feeling lucky, punk.

Aren’t most handguns equipped with 13-18 rounds?

You aren’t required to fire until empty.

True, but I don’t know why you’d reload after 8 if that were the case.

No, but do the cops have the necessary restraint to not pull the trigger until it clicks?

…but, but, they were scared! They were forced, no, coerced into firing until empty, because of the cruel crime of the missing license…
