Dear LAPD public records official,
Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
All policies, memoranda, manuals, regulations, etc as were in effect on 2021/12/24 specifying the type(s) of ammunition LAPD patrol officers may use in or carry for use in rifles/carbines.
In the interest of clarity, I am not seeking records generated as part of any investigation into any events on that date, only records that spell out what sort of rifle/carbine ammunition your officers were permitted to use as of that date.
I am willing to pay applicable fees up to $50. Please contact me if fees will exceed $50. I request that my request be filled electronically by portal upload or email attachment.
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Joseph Durso
From: Los Angeles Police Department
City of Los Angeles

Hi there
Record request #21-11571 has been closed and published. The closure reason supplied was:
Dear Requester:
We reviewed your request for:
“All policies, memoranda, manuals, regulations, etc as were in effect on 2021/12/24 specifying the type(s) of ammunition LAPD patrol officers may use in or carry for use in rifles/carbines”. (sic)
Your request was made under the California Public Records Act (the Act). The Department is cognizant of its responsibilities under the Act. It recognizes the statutory scheme was enacted to maximize citizen access to the workings of government. The Act does not mandate disclosure of all documents within the government’s possession. Rather, by specific exemption and reference to other statutes, the Act recognizes that there are boundaries where the public’s right to access must be balanced against such weighty considerations as the right of privacy, a right of constitutional dimension under California Constitution, Article 1, Section 1. The law also exempts from disclosure records that are privileged or confidential or otherwise exempt under either express provisions of the Act or pursuant to applicable federal or state law, per California Government Code Sections 6254(b); 6254(c); 6254(f); 6254(k); and 6255.
The responsive documents have been provided to you.
If you have any questions, please respond to this email.
Respectfully,
LAPD Public Records & Subpoena Response Section, CPRA Unit
