And I would say ‘follow the money’ ... with the KelTec sub2000 accomplishing the same shooting task as the expensive H&K but for under$750 fully equiped with optics, etc, this smells of funneling money to a favorite at taxpayer’s expense.

"...this smells of funneling money to a favorite at taxpayer’s expense."

Yep. Who's the proposed supplier? Have to bet that there's a dealer close at hand who's cosy with the local LEOs.

I’ve owned a Sub2000 (.40SW that uses Glock 22 mags) and I wouldn’t issue it to anybody who’s serious about the task at hand.

Crappy trigger.
Crappy ergonomics.
Inaccurate as hell.
You cannot mount an optic to it if you want to fold it.

The cops need a moderately expensive AR in their cruiser trunk and they’d be able to outfit a lot more than 4 cops for $10,000.
