The individual weapons in use with the Policía de la Provincia de Buenos Aires are fairly old and varied with some new equipment trickling in, like the Bersa Thunder 9.

The Sastrería Militar, depending from the Ejército Argentino (EA), is currently manufacturing bullet-proof gilets specifically designed to the specifications of the force.
