Security Guard Privileges

[FCMMike]

So does someone who is a security guard WITH the power to arrest (not citizen arrest) have any other privileges LE gets? Specifically access to standard-capacity magazines. All I need a short and sweet response. Please ask if you want something clarified. Thanks in advance!

Security unless off duty LE can only make a Citizen's Arrest. They are not sworn Peace Officers.

Security guards never have the power to arrest. Only LE officers have the power to arrest, all others are citizen arrest only.

Exactly. Only LEO can make arrests. You don't have the same authority as an LEO

[ElvenSoul]

They are not Law Enforcement and therefore just the same gun rights as the rest of us.

No special weapon permits either, except your exposed weapon with a guard card.

hahahhahaha

[NorCalXJ]

Aren't they suppose to tell your authority when you take the class to get your card?

For the record, I'm not a security guard. I never said anything about being one. Nice of you all to jump to conclusions, though.

Lucky for you, no one gave you crap about posting in the "Centerfire Rifle Section" rather than in the General/ LEO Threads.

I think you got your answer, and if not-try those threads.

Security guards are private citizens that are not sworn LEO's, and have to abide by the same laws as every other private citizen.

That's what I first thought when I read the OP's post.
