| As of | Oct 9, 2026 |
One of the authorized office-issued patrol rifles (with a Bushmaster AR-15 and a JP-15) per Policy 203 (manual dated January 2026).
The Marathon County (Wisconsin) Sheriff's Office LE policy manual (Lexipol, dated January 12, 2026) was published on DocumentCloud. Policy 203.3.1 lists the authorized office-issued patrol rifles as the Bushmaster AR-15, Smith & Wesson M&P15 and JP-15. Only the M&P15 is listed here because the other two entries do not name a specific model. The manual does not name an issued handgun model.
