The Henry County Police Department received the go-ahead from the Board of Commissioners to purchase 54 Glock handguns for up to $22,626 by a vote at the board’s Oct. 4 regular meeting.
The department has been transitioning from older model .40 caliber handguns to 9mm handguns, according to HCPD Maj. Keith Going. This purchase will complete that transition.
Each handgun will have “HCPD” engraved on the side for identification purposes, Going said, and that mark can be removed when the weapons are no longer used by the department.
