PA state trooper disassenbled my gun during traffic stop

Wanna make a point to the two cops? Get the corp., sgt., lt and capt. pissed at them. Write a letter of complaint and send it and cc to everyone up the line from their barracks. Send it to the gov, head of PSP, state sen., state rep and anyone else you think of. Send the internal affairs form in to four or five days later. For a couple of days, the supervisors at the barracks will be getting calls, letters and faxes from all directions and will have no idea what the hell anyone is talking about. They will be improvising and, hopefully, will tell different stories at different times to the heavy hitters. Make the Indian chiefs look bad and there will be hell to pay by the guys at the bottom of the totem pole.

George Hayduke ain't got nothin on you.

Sounds like something I would do, and my wife constantly calls me "vengeful"...

Don't PSP carry Glocks?

Nope. They switched to the Sig P227 a couple years ago.

I was pulled over for speeding once,
the cop removed my carburetor.

Maybe it's in here somewhere and I'm too dumb to find it, but is there an actual statute or regulation that permits the police to confiscate a firearm based on how they feel rather than a criminal investigation?

Apparently, if the police feels unsafe they make you do the hokey pokey and shoot you if you fail.

Just the common law of survival. You do what smokey says and he lets you live. Any repercussions come later.

At that point in the event it looked more like Twister than the Hokey Pokey.

You made the mistake of telling them. Deal with it.
