First and foremost, if you don't have rulebooks or if you want help outfitting your character, feel free to message a moderator.
As a police officer you are somewhat restricted in the types of weapons you can carry, especially on the job. Even if you were on the ERU (SWAT) you will never be wielding crossbows or rocket launchers. And you will never be duel wielding Desert Eagles or playing Dirty Harry with a .44 Magnum. Even if you have great plans to be a vampire hunter, carrying stakes in your car can get you laughed at, fired, or both. Loading your gun with siliver bullets will defiantly be cause for an IAB investigation and a full psychological evaluation. The department has a gun locker from which you can choose. Each officer is given a department issue Glock 22 as their primary sidearm.
Type: Glock 22
Dam: +2L (9again)
Capacity: 15+1
Str Req: 2
Ranges: 20/40/80
Size: 1/s
Officers of the BPD are given a bit more leeway with back up sidearms. The choices are broad: nothing over .40 or below .22, no magnum, nothing over 2 dots in cost, and nothing out of the ordinary--such as something with special ammunition or guns equipped for silencers. Also the gun must be small enough to be easily concealed, so under size 1.
Street officers (cops) also carry tasers and pepper spray.

Now be warned, all your guns are registered and test fired. So you have to be very careful what you shoot service rounds into.
Your choices for melee weapons are far more limited. A cop cannot be seen drawing a knife, and certainly can't have a katana in the police car next to him "just in case." An officer can carry utility knives (under three inches), but ever trying to use it as a weapon, even in the most extreme circumstances, would be a career-limiting move. Police have a limited choice of baton type weapons.
