It depends on the department. If the weapon is furnished by the dept. they can require you to leave the at the L.E.C. If you furnish your own you can take it home or lock it up at the L.E.C.. In my 18 yrs. I always furnished my own and I took them home with me.

My father puts his .45 S&W into a gun cabinet after duty.

Hopefully, they put them up in a safe place!!!
May God bless you.

My husband used to keep his close to him at all times. He also was required to wear if when he was off duty. This was in California. Cops are cops 24/7.

Sometimes they carry them when they're off duty and sometimes they store them in a gun safe.

Clean them, and then lock them in a safe place, or apply a trigger lock.

Why don't you just ask a Police Officer?

They are able to take them home, and hopefully, keep them locked up.

They get to take them home and store them there. My mom always kept hers on top of the refrigerator until my sister and I were old enough to keep our grubby little paws off of it. Then she kept it on her bathroom counter with her badge. She bought it when she retired, so I'm willing to bet she keeps it on top of the refrigerator again. I reckon that other precincts can have different rules, but that's how it goes here.

My duty pistol and rifle hang in my locker, my shotgun is turned in to Supply and my backup is in my pocket.

Most put it in their locker, then grab their off duty gun and go home.

Store in a safe at the station.

Rent them out to criminals ! They`re always brought back on time because of the high "late fee" . Hey ! ................... a buck`s a buck !

OK , you don`t buy that one ..................... how about this :

They store them in a locked container either at home or at the police station .
