[QUOTE="ExSniper, post: 2134165, member: 1387"] No. No. No. Yes, for example a VPO against a police officer would make them ineligible for an SDA license. My no answers are based on your question and it seems you are asking if an LEO needs an SDA License, they do not. Authority of Peace Officer while off-duty: Off duty peace officers, with specific authority from the employing agency, may be permitted to carry off-duty weapons. Authority is found in Title 21, Section 1289.23, of the Oklahoma Statutes. If such authority is granted, it must meet the requirements of this section. Counties and municipalities may choose not to permit off-duty weapon status. TThis statute states that the weapon must be concealed when off duty, but the definition of "uniform" makes this a gray area. FEDERAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE FIREARM LEGISLATION The Gun Control Act makes it unlawful for a person who is the subject of a qualifying protection order to possess or receive firearms or ammunition (section 922(g)(8) of the Gun Control Act). Under the ATF’s interpretation of the Official Use Exception, this provision does not apply to persons “performing official duties on behalf of a Federal, State or local law enforcement agency.” The ATF says that if officers are “authorized or required to carry their service weapon at all times, the exception applies to their service weapon at all times.” “The exception does not apply for officers who are ‘off-duty’ at the end of a shift, and are not authorized by statute, regulation, or official department policy to possess their duty weapons for the purpose of performing official duties.” [/QUOTE]
