Nice mounts.  The rifle may be secure, but those spendy looking optics aren't.

Nice bikes too. 

And I'm not used to seeing bike cops in full face; I guess they've got the mic issue figured out.

Of course, if they can have them, so can we.

There is a situation where an FN p90 would be ideal.
Compact, reasonably accurate, decently powerful.
Standard capacity of 50 rounds.

$1700-2200 apiece is a righteous taxpayer problem, though they could probably get a a bit of a price break.

Select fire subguns with full auto are probably not a good choice outside swat either.

I agree on the select fire, but keep the short barrel and render it semi auto.  You are right, the price is a bit high.  I'm just a huge fan of the weapon, though!

I've carried my Saiga 12 (AK47 12 gauge shotgun) and a few AR15's (2 at a time even) on my Valk more than once...

(And enough handguns and ammo that I'd make the nightly news if pulled over in a slave state)

A light tap on the rear is going to make using that rifle very difficult.

Here in the land of cheddar, to transport a long gun it has to be unloaded and cased. I doubt that mount would qualify as a case. I miss my southern states rifle rack in the back window of the pick-up even if it usually only had a 4 ft level in it. The .357 was always in the glove box and still is unless I am going to the Land of Toll Roads just south of me where the 2nd Amendment is a rumor.

Cracker,
The cased and unloaded long gun in a vehicle was changed with the concealed carry law.
Makes no sense to me, but now an unloaded long gun can be carried in a vehicle.
SO put the rifle rack back up, just leave the magazine on the seat.

I'm not sure about cheesehead law, but I believe that pertained to carrying inside a vehicle (concealed) with out a CWP.  The cop AR's are not concealed rather open carry.

Pretty cool! I wasn't aware that Valks were used for police work. I thought only old HDs, Kawasaki KZ1000P, Beemers (R1150RT, R1200RT) and Hondas (ST1300).
