Report
Summary
The Police Department, Firearms Training Detail provides both training and duty ammunition to the entire department. Patrol and specialty details, such as the Special Assignments Unit (SAU), utilize a variety of handguns, shotguns and rifles during their duty assignment, which require various types of ammunition.
Frangible and simunition training ammunition are designed for marksmanship training at an outdoor range. Frangible is lead free and is designed for use at the indoor ranges at the precincts/bureaus. Simunition, or marking and non-marking cartridges, are used for scenario-based training conducted at the Phoenix Regional Police Academy's Tactical Village and the driving track. Training ammunition is expended in significantly higher quantities and is designed to mimic the accuracy and reliable functioning of duty ammunition but is less expensive.
