Best Answer

You can be issued batons or even lethal weapons while on security detail, if it is deemed appropriate to do such. If batons are not being issued for the detail, it was probably seen as unnecessary. If you feel that it's pertinent to carry one, you need to make your case to the NCOIC of that detail.

It's important to follow the rules and regulations of your specific security guard detail and company. If you haven't found any guidelines regarding the carrying of batons, it would be best to consult with your supervisor or the relevant authority to seek clarification on whether you are allowed to carry one while on duty. This will ensure that you are in compliance with policies and regulations.

Are Telescopic Steel Batons illegal in Virginia?

Well, I can tell you this much, I have been living in the Commonwealth for my entire life and I will tell you its very risky. I’m not sure off the top of my head but I read the Virginia laws regarding weapons, quite some years ago. Expandable Batons, Brass Knuckles, Butterfly Knives, Throwing Cards/Knives are all basically under the deadly weapons list. I had a friend in 2006 who was caught with brass knuckles, he didn’t receive a” possession of a deadly weapons charge”, but instead “Possession of brass knuckles?” In Virginia it seems they just make the up laws year after year. Id say sure if It makes you feel safer, carry it. Just don’t get caught.

Can felons carry police batons?

if you are in the united states yes but keep it away , if you are in Canada you may not have one at all , allthough somtimes you can still buy them they are illegal to carry.In Canada, there is no specific law that prohibits batons; except for spring loaded batons, which are defined as a prohibited weapon under a regulation entitled Regulations Prescribing Certain Firearms and other Weapons, Components and Parts of Weapons, Accessories, Cartridge Magazines, Ammunition and Projectiles as Prohibited or Restricted (also capable of being referred to by its registration number: SOR 98-462). However, it is a crime under section 90 of the Criminal Code of Canada to carry any weapon, including a baton, in a concealed fashion. So as long as your baton is not spring loaded and you carry the baton in plain sight you're good to go!
