The use of firearms by [[police]] forces varies widely across the [[World police|world]], in part due to differences in gun use [[Policy analysis|policy]], civilian firearm laws, and recording of police activity. [[Police forces]] may require that officers use warning shots before aiming on-target, officers may need to make verbal warnings before using their firearms, and officers may be prohibited from carrying weapons while performing tasks such as highway patrol where gun use is not expected.
