Whether an auxiliary police officer can carry a weapon in other states depends on the laws of both the officer's home state and the state they are visiting. Generally, auxiliary police officers do not have the same legal authority as full-time law enforcement officers, and their ability to carry firearms may be restricted outside their jurisdiction. Some states have reciprocity agreements for concealed carry, but these typically apply to certified law enforcement officers. It's essential for auxiliary officers to research and comply with the specific regulations of the state they are in.
A police officer is any person who is authorized by a governmental entity or private entity specifically authorized by law (e.g., Amtrak and other railroads) to employ police officers. Most officers are required to complete training prescribed by a statewide standards organization (such as a Peace Officers Standards and Training Commission), meet certain physical, mental, and emotional standards, and take an oath of office. Police officers may be employed by their agency or volunteer, as in the case of auxiliary or reserve officers. In many states, part-time reserve or auxiliary officers have no police authority when off duty.
