About this file

This document is a standard operating procedure (SOP) detailing VA Police approved firearms accessories, effective 10/01/2024. The document specifies mandatory equipment requirements for VA police officers, including approved holsters for specific handgun models (Beretta 92D, SIG P229R, SIG P320) for both uniformed and plain clothes assignments. Holster brands are limited to Safariland and Blackhawk T Series, with strict requirements such as level 2 retention and strong-side draw for plain clothes holsters.

The document also mandates uniform duty equipment specifications for weapon-mounted lights and optics. Flashlight requirements include LED technology, minimum 300 lumens output, and compatibility with specific models like Streamlight TLR-1 and Surefire X300-B. Optic specifications mandate a dot size between 2-8 Minutes of Angle (MOA), direct mounting to an optics-ready slide, and push-button activation. Specific optic examples include Eotech EFLX, Trijicon SRO/RMR, and Sig Sauer Romeo 02. Solar-powered optics are explicitly not authorized, and battery life must be checked before each shift with annual replacement.
