  1. Actually, your example is exactly what happened (open carry, displaying a badge). The badge looked just like a kpd badge. The officer made the man aware of the code and ask him, as a courtesy request(no written warning or cite), to put it up. The man refused and was then cited. It went to misd court, I was there, and the above fine and court coast were imposed. I know the officer, who is an excellent officer by any standard, and was present during the judgement.
  2. Do not get one of the tn handgun carry badges and wear it or show it, if it resembles any local, state or federal leo badge. Most do. It is a misdemeanor and can cost 500.00 plus fine and court cost. Check tca code for specifics.
  3. Mistake in list. Knox County SO carries Glocks in 40sw, type depends on assignment. KPD is wanting to change to Sig, they currently issue Glocks to road officers.
  4. Not a fan of the Ruger because it is hard to breakdown/assemble and maintain.  Other than that, it is a great pistol.    The SW 22A is an easy gun to operate and clean.  The ammo for this gun can cause problems.  It likes the cheap stuff.  Get the round nose lead or jacketed ammo.  CCI will work great also as long as it is not the hollow point.  A lot of the 22 pistols have a inset punched in the magazine to lock it into the pistol.  The hollow point ammo hangs on this inset.  This is a problem on a lot of 22 rifles and pistols.  I did a little research on the web and tested this on the range.  Gun ran like a chap with the right ammo.  That being said, I will get a lot of emails that say "it should run all ammo, you life could depend on it".   It's a range gun,  If you are picking up the 22 as your first choice of weapon to protect yourself from an intruder,  you're probably going the shoot your foot anyway....  Sorry.
