9.11.3.10.4 (05-02-2018)

Firearms​

  1. While on official business, special agents will not carry weapons or use ammunition other than that furnished by the IRS.
  2. The Glock .40 caliber semiautomatic pistol, Models 22, 23 and 27 are the standard issued weapons for CI. Special agents will be issued one of these firearms on a permanent basis. Agents will retain their assigned weapon during their entire career unless the weapon is recalled for repair or replacement.
  3. Under unusual circumstances, the special agents, with notification to the Director, Field Operations, may authorize the use of any IRS-owned weapon for a specific assignment. Agents authorized to carry weapons other than the Glock .40 caliber for a specific assignment must qualify with their assigned weapon prior to carrying that weapon and once every other fiscal quarter.
  4. The SAC may authorize the use of any IRS-owned handgun for undercover operations. Undercover agents authorized to carry other than the Glock .40 caliber must qualify with their assigned weapon prior to carrying that weapon and once every other fiscal quarter.
  5. Special agents are responsible for ensuring their assigned weapon is kept clean and in serviceable operating condition at all times.
  6. All IRS-owned firearms must be inspected prior to issuance, and annually thereafter, by a firearm instructor who has completed armorer training and is currently certified by the manufacturer or an IRS-authorized gunsmith to ensure each weapon is safe for use and in good operating condition.
  7. Firearms requiring repair, adjustment or modification will be serviced by the manufacturer, an IRS-authorized gunsmith, or a firearms instructor who has completed armorer training and is currently certified by the manufacturer.
  8. The changing of sights and triggers on the Glock weapon system is authorized when, in the opinion of a firearms instructor, such action will improve the shooter’s accuracy. Sights and triggers may only be changed by the manufacturer, an IRS-authorized gunsmith, or a firearms instructor who has completed armorer training and is currently certified by the manufacturer.
  9. Modifications (other than changing sights and triggers on the Glock or changing barrels and stocks on Remington shotguns) will not be made to an IRS-issued weapon without prior approval of the Director, NCITA.

    Note:​


    Converting live fire weapons to temporary training weapons are prohibited.
 
9.11.3.10.4.1 (05-02-2018)

Holsters​

  1. Holsters of any standard type, unless specifically prohibited, will be furnished by the field office on the basis of one holster per weapon. Holsters must have a special safety strap or be capable of retaining the weapon when weapon and holster are held upside down, allow one-handed drawing and reholstering, have a covered trigger guard, and with respect to semiautomatic pistols, allow the agent to remove the magazine while the weapon is holstered.
  2. The use of any Level II retention, auto lock holster, that requires trigger or middle finger manipulation to release the firearm from the holster, (i.e. Blackhawk Serpa style holster) is prohibited. This prohibition includes all official on duty use and off duty use, if carrying an IRS-CI issued handgun, as authorized in IRM 9.1.4 (subsection 9.1.4.5, Directive No. 4 – Firearms).
  3. Alternative holsters are authorized for duty carry for CI issued weapons. Alternative holsters must meet the requirements of subsection 9.11.3.10.4.1(1) and may include: ankle holsters, shoulder holsters, inside waist band holsters, fanny packs and purses (with enclosed holster).
  4. Special agents will have the opportunity to select one alternative holster (excluding off-body) to be issued by CI.
  5. Off-body holsters including, but not limited to purses, messenger bags, and tactical pouches/packs that are worn cross body over the shoulder and have an integrated holster meeting the requirements of subsection 9.11.3.10.4.1(1) are also authorized as alternative holsters when such a holster provides a tactical or operational advantage.
  6. Alternative holsters are not authorized for use in planned enforcement operations such as arrests, search or seizure warrants, or during protection assignments. Standard issue holsters or tactical gear are required for use in planned enforcement operations.
  7. Special agents using either CI issued or personally owned alternative holsters must also demonstrate proficiency in drawing and reholstering their assigned weapon. Special agents will only qualify with their standard issue holster and the holster used for warrant service (tactical or other belt holster), but will demonstrate drawing and reholstering proficiency with their alternative holster to a CI firearms instructor on an annual basis.
  8. Alternative holsters purchased by special agents must be inspected and approved by a CI firearms instructor prior to use to ensure compliance with subsection 9.11.3.10.4.1(1).

  4. Frangible ammunition is required when firing on metal targets. Metal targets should not be deformed, placed at right angles or engaged inside of 10 yards.
 
I wouldn't worry too much about the job description. Eliot Ness stockpiled assault weapons when he arrested Al Capone for tax evasion. :cool:

The over-abundance of ammo storage is troubling, though.

Speaking of federal job duties: the Postal Service job description for mailhandler includes acting as an "armed watchman" when needed for secure mail shipments. Mailhandlers work in larger sorting facilities and move mail in bulk, while clerks do the fine sorting. To my knowledge, no mailhandler in Columbus ever carried an authorized firearm on the job, at least in the last 45 years. But I know for a fact in the 1970's several of them took a training class at work where they practiced firing wax bullets, so the contingency still existed.

Semi-related holster note - It would appear to me that shopping for holsters with some on-line retailers (new ads in particular) may be putting potential buyers on a private "hand-gun owners' list". If one wants to be discreet, cash at a brick & mortar is best.

The IRS has the power of the pen. They can shut anyone down financially. They should coordinate raids with proper law enforcement agencies. Why would they need guns and ammo? A calculator should be enough.

Maybe the Demarxists at the top probably also want to pull cops that are still employed away from City cop jobs, to bigger and better bennies with IRS employment, in order to cause more urban chaos ?

Seems like another one of their twisted "win/wins", in which DC wins and we lose.

So you are telling me if lots and lots of people that do not own hand guns just bought holsters the list of potential gun owns could and would be made a total sham?

This

The ONLY reason for this is top-down control. American Cops already proved during Covid restriction nonsense that many of them are with "We, the People", and not "Them, the bureaucratic thug scum". Therefore, the ESG Beast will need its own Army. This is it. The end of freedom.

Interesting perspective. ;)

Think about it, though. What percentage of those people shopping for holsters would you imagine DO NOT own a handgun ?


I daresay that there are many more pistols owned by those with no CCW than those with one. I would also suspect that more handguns have been purchased without a searchable bill of sale than with one. Geeks are always grinding data. "Holsters" won't be an exception for long.

How many ? What proportion carry now ? If those being added all meet hiring goals, how will that proportion change ?
