Calvada Police Equipment

If you want overpriced items go here.
If you want affordable items, look on Amazon, or
, or google anything Law Enforcement before you waste money here. They say they are «law enforcement friendly», I say not and to see for yourself.
Ex. I bought one ear piece for 10.99 and looked on Amazon and I could have bought 3 for 12.95.

If you need something in a timely manner, you might want to seek to patronise Calvada Police Equipment. To make sure they have what you need: you may want to call ahead. It’s what I did and it all worked out swimmingly. I got what I needed and luckily there was no other patrons in the store: I got to move around as furtive as I desired and made it out alive to publish this review.
Pro Tip:
It is likely a lot cheaper to purchase online, especially if you have a free shipping subscription such as Prime®. Although one cannot feel the quality such as one can at a brick and mortar like Calvada Police Equipment.
Pro Tip:
Don’t make any furtive movements and you may be perfectly safe. If you don’t know what furtive movements are: you’re already dead, you just don’t know it yet. Dead Man Walking!

Rating: Three-​stars, «A-​OK.»

Nice variety, friendly, focus is security and law enforcement. If you need the basics, this is the perfect shop.

Limited selection that is highly over priced! They do not price match or give refunds EVEN with receipts.

Calvada is the best place for public safety gear. I have been shopping at Calvada since they were at their old location. They always have what I am looking for, and if they don’t have it they can order it. I bought an end cap for my expandable baton a few weeks ago, and they installed it for me right there in the store. They have a great selection of holsters and gear. They haven’t expanded and gotten too big which has been the downfall of other public safety shops in Las Vegas. They do not refund returns, they only give store credit, which I haven’t had a problem with, but just be aware of it. Calvada is a great place to shop!

Save yourself the trouble of driving all over town for gear and hit Calvada. I went to literally every «tactical/​LEO» geared shop in town and all were a bust. This was my last stop and I found everything I needed. Even boots which made my day. Being a female it’s hard to find duty boots, but this shop had plenty of sizes and styles to choose from. Staff was extremely helpful too. Thanks again guys! I’ll definitely be back.

Place has good selection and staff is professional and quick to help. Be aware no returns on any purchase. Only in store credit and only within 3 days. Kind of rules this place for gift purchases. or to see if something will work with your belt. You best bring it with because you aren’t getting a dime back even after speaking with the owner. You’ll just have to sit on the money till you need more down the road.

These guys are fantastic!
Very knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to help you find what you NEED, not just what they want to sell you.
They’re experienced in law enforcement, so they have great ideas on how things work best.
They’re prices are comparable to any other local shop, and they have a wide selection of products, including things to make your life better that you didn’t know existed (Cool Cop Body Armor cooling kit, Shirt Tuck to keep your shirt tucked in, and more!)
The best equipment store to go to on the northwest side of town.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS PLACE, OWNER IS RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!!
This place was recomended to me by a friend of mine who happens to be a Police Officer. I went there to buy equipment on August of 2014, which I would use for the Metro Police Academy. Unfortunely, the department decided not to hire me anymore so I had to return the items since I wont need them anymore. I went to the store on 09/​26/​2014 to try to return the items. I spoke with the owner of the store, who at first I didn’t know who he was. I told him what had happened and that I need to return the stuff and he said no. He grabs my receipt from my hand and says, «We only do 3 day exchange’. I tried to convince him to do it since I quit my full time job and I’m out $ 1100 dollars. He still said no and I ONLY replied by saying that it was BS they only do a 3 day exchange. He replies by saying that I’M FULL OF SHIT and I requested to talk to the owner, and he says ‘I am the owner’. I told him,’ You are the owner?, a full grown man who just used foul language against me!!’. He looks at me with a lame face knowing that he made a mistake. So I told him that he needs to change his return policy because is BS and not fair but he still didn’t care and told me that is my problem that I’m stuck with the items and said once more that I’M FULL OF SHIT! And just for the heck of it, I told him that I really hope he runs out of business. And for the record, I have bought stuff there before and they were always nice because he wasn’t there. My name is Oscar Garcia, I used my wife’s account since I don’t have one.

These guys are great down there… very helpful. Only place in town that had the boots I was looking for… they also had Clipdraw for Glocks cheaper than the Internet. Good stuff. I’ll go back.

Nice clean shop. Very personable employees. I needed shirt stays (yes they have them here) so I called to verify they had them in stock. Went to the store and got the shirt stays and one of the employees (I think he was the owner) was very personable and pulled up a chair while I was trying to figure out which shirt stays I wanted and we were making small talk, which continued at the register. Nice guy.

Friend recommended me to come here to find a holster for my handgun and the older gentleman in there helped me find one that would fit my compact handgun he went out of his way to make sure I got the one I was looking for I also like how you don’t have to drive to the strip for accessories as they seem to specialize in just that.

I actually got this store information from a guy at Walmart wearing a metro police shirt.
At first i started to gather my needed equipment from American Shooters, but they seemed to only have a set variety to choose from and mostly carried armory type supplies. I could not find the specific security material there nor New Frontier or Nellis AFB.
Walking into this store, i knew from the first aisle that i was finally in the right place. From pink handcuffs to taser guns, these guys are stalked with police/​security officer supplies and some;) Lol. The owners who helped me find my items are friendly/​retired military guys that know their info and are more than willing to help with your needs. They hooked me up nicely on some items too!

My neighborhood Law Enforcement Supply store. Gotta love the convenience.
Definitely a good selection. However, they didn’t have any of the items I was looking for. It was busy when I came in & the staff seemed pretty helpful, to everyone else, as nobody ever asked me if I needed any assistance. Oh well.
I would probably come back though. They do have a decent boot selection as well as holster’s & other assorted goodies for firearms ;)
