All sworn personnel who are issued a department handgun or are utilizing a department rifle will be responsible for routine cleaning of the weapon. The firearm must be cleaned and lubricated while an officer is on-duty.
At the end of each scheduled qualification or training exercise, officers will safely break disassemble the firearm at the designated clearing area and perform routine cleaning before returning to service.
All repairs to department firearms will be conducted by the target range staff or an authorized department armorer.
The target range staff will maintain inventory control of all department weapons, which allows an accurate record of the location of the weapon and maintenance history.
