Mr. Koahou - ideally they don't switch up armorers but they could. <br />Ms. Sako — was thinking maybe if they had a changeover in staff and had someone new training. <br />Mr. Koahou - what he really liked about the new handguns was that they are was similar enough <br />to the ones they carry so there will be no transitional problems in training. Usually when an <br />agency take on new firearms there's a huge transition period where you are trying to get the <br />shooter to become comfortable and confident with the new firearm. <br />Mr. Koahou - with the exception of the switch between right and left handed; being <br />ergonomically design, there will be no transitional or training issues. It's advantageous and can <br />OPA can concentrate their trainings on just one pistol as oppose to two pistols. <br />Mr. Hunt - how many in the department carry firearms? <br />Mr. Kuahou — ten. <br />Mr. Calaway — will OPA be looking into standardizing holsters? <br />Mr. Koahou - the holsters they currently carry will accommodate the new firearms. <br />Mr. Hunt — Will the caliber ammunition be accommodated with the existing holster? <br />Mr. Kuahou - yes. <br />Ms. Sako — Any other questions? No other questions. <br />The Committee voted and motion was carried. <br />ANNOUNCEMENTS <br />None. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />There was no further business. Mr. Kamelamela made a motion to adjourn the meeting and it <br />was seconded by Mr. Lord. The meeting adjourned at 10:08 a.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />C stallene Pacheco <br />
