Speer was recently awarded law enforcement ammunition contracts from the Miami-Dade Police Department in Florida.

The 9 mm duty handgun ammunition contract is for Speer Law Enforcement 124-grain +P Gold Dot, and the .223 Rem. duty rifle ammunition contract is for 75-grain Speer Gold Dot.

More from Speer about the Gold Dot loads: “Designed to deliver the high performance today’s law enforcement officers demand. Each Speer LE Gold Dot bullet is individually engineered to provide shot-to-shot uniformity and ensure optimum performance when fired through a variety of barriers. The result is a cartridge that provides officers the ultimate defense in lethal force confrontations.”

Notably, Miami-Dade is the eighth largest police department in the United States with approximately 3,500 officers.

“We are extremely proud of this important contract award,” Steven Jenkins, senior law enforcement sales specialist for Speer said. “It validates the high level of trust that our nation’s law enforcement agencies have with our extremely reliable and innovative products.”
