Hi Charulatha-
Honestly there is no single answer for this question. In general in the U.S. each police officer carries a gun of some type. The guns vary in type, caliber, etc. There are also backup weapons, long guns, etc. It is important to be very proficient in it, knowing the laws and rules regulating the use of it, and also know how to care for it.
With all of that being said, the gun is just one part of being a police officer. It is very important to be a very well rounded officer, and your firearm is just a part of that.
Thank you
