Just the Army as of right now, I believe in the coming years one or more branches will adopt the P320 as their side arm for most of their troops with some specific units getting different pistols more suited to their needs like we have currently with some units.

Last week, we got confirmation of a sort that the other three armed services would adopt the Army’s new Modular Handgun System, the M17, to replace the old Beretta M9 service pistol. At least, that’s what Army officials told Military.com in a widely shared story about the MHS program’s progress: The Air Force, they said, was down for 130,000 pistols; the Navy would buy 61,000; and the Marine Corps would take 35,000. Altogether, the three services would take more of the guns than the Army, which was ordering 195,000 M17s. |

Our CATM shop said they've been briefed on a introduction plan for the P320 twice now. Looking at about 3 years before the USAF will have it.
I'm very interested to see what the new training and courses of fire will be. |

The Army has historically been the lead agency on small arms procurement. DOD goes with whatever the Army comes up with, except when the Marines go off the reservation.

Quote HistoryImmigration and Customs side. BP will be keeping their H&K P2000s, at least for a while. Apparently they still have a warehouse full of them.
