US Secret Service uses the P90 as their primary and Five-seveN as their sidearm.

Check the white house guards. They have the P90s and Five-seveNs I believe.

The Secret Service does not use the Five SeveNs but yes they use Sig Sauer .45 or 357 mag Formerly they used a .357 mag revolver

they also use the P90 after changing from the Israeli made Uzis
a book by a former agent talked about how he hated the Uzis and how they would jam all the time during practice. I also always thought the Uzi was kind of a spray and pray weapon instead of an accurate weapon.

Most federal agencies use the Sigs now except the FBI and US Marshals who still use the Glocks

Which is why I wonder why the military still uses the M9 Beretta 9mm as their sidearm and not the Sigs
im sure it has something to do with politics.....

SOME of the military still uses the M9, others use sigs...
Most of the PJ's carried M9s but a few had Sigs.. the seals use sigs, force recon uses Sigs.. hell the Coast guard just placed an order for 10,000 Sigs.. lol
and yes, P90 > Uzi.. never fired a full auto P90, but I have held one, and they are really nice..

.

They generally arrange fairly long term contracts for weapons. Winning a bid usually means you are the supplier for at least 10 or so years.
