Who is the First Defence Mk6 .4% issued to?

The First Defence Mk6 .4% is specifically designed to be issued to undercover and plain clothes police officers. This choice is correct because these officers operate in environments where discretion is paramount and they may need to use a self-defense option that is effective yet non-lethal. The formulation of the Mk6 allows for quick deployment in situations where an immediate but controlled response is necessary, such as apprehending suspects while minimizing risk to civilians.

Uniformed police may have access to a broader range of equipment and tools for direct engagement in a more visible capacity, while community watch members typically do not carry law enforcement tools for personal defense or conflict resolution. Military personnel also generally receive different training and equipment tailored to their specific operational needs, which often do not include the non-lethal options designated for civilian law enforcement applications. By focusing on the needs of undercover operations, the Mk6 has been positioned as a suitable solution for officers who require the capacity to control situations without escalating to lethal force.
