...won an election for Constable of my Township in PA.  Turns out it qualifies for LEOSA.

Considering it was a write in and I wasn't running.

...I'm probably not going to take it, but it's funny to think it's that easy. 4 votes.

Our county has volunteer sheriffs that are sent to a peace officer academy.....pretty sure it qualifies for leosa as well

Why not take it?    How many years do you have to put in till full "retirement".

Whoopee. When carrying under LEOSA you are tied to your dept weapon policies.  I suggest you take a VERY close look at those SOP's.

We just qualify with the guns we plan on carrying...

Our range officers dread me coming because I bring a J frame, 4 glocks, 3 1911s, a lcp, and a Derringer. It takes me an hour to qualify lol.

Sheriffs Departments in PA are more about courtroom security, prisoner transport and the like.
They aren't usually what you would think of as a "regular" cop.

IIRC, and I may not, TX constables even have powers that regular LE don't

Nope, 7 rounds in the magazine and the total had better be 7 including the one in the chamber while in NY.

When did that change??? It's been a handful of years but I used to hang out with some officers one night a week drinking when I worked EMS and they always gave this Lancaster County Deputy Sheriff a hard time because he couldn't carry if we went to the beach or something... He is even a k9 handler on a emergency response team of some sort and does shit with the marshals and PSP sometimes... But wasn't covered a few years ago.
