ACPD equips their officers with Smith & Wesson M&P15 semiautomatic rifles chambered in 5.56×45mm NATO. These rifles are often equipped with red dot sights, weapon mounted lights, 30 round magazines, and slings. The department issued sidearm is a Glock22 or the smaller Glock 23 depending on the hand size and personal preference of the officer. These guns are loaded with .40 S&W Hollow-point bullet. However, as the FBI switches to the 9×19mm Parabellum, ACPD is planning to do the same and may soon begin equipping its officers with the Glock 17 or Glock 19, both chambered in 9mm. Previously, officers had the option of carrying 12 gauge Remington Model 870 shotguns, but these are being phased out by the AR-15 rifles. Officers can also carry backup weapons in addition to their issued sidearm, provided that their backup weapon is chambered for .380 ACP or greater. For less than lethal options, officers are equipped with Baton (law enforcement) and TASER X2 Defender tasers.
