I went to court and i keep one of the spare handcuff keyes on my keychain and they took the keys away, I understand why I cant have them in there, but then they would not give it back. They told me it was illegal to own a pair of police handcuffs. But if you go to Smith and Wesson.com, where I got mine, you can purchase them no questions asked!

Ok everyone needs to get their minds out of the gutter! I've had the KEY not the cuffs for almost 7 years, I found it and kept it because I found it interesting. I did not even KNOW it was a handcuff key till they told me. So if you do not have anything of merit to contribute just shut the hell up!

... and I understand why I could not have it the courthouse "Scott"... my question is why I could not have them back!! So next time read the question completely ( maybe a few times if it was too complicated for you) before you decide to try and answer it.

I think you were scammed...
Absent any law prohibiting ownership, they 'stole' your
legally purchased property. I don't know why you wanted a key [ nor care ], but the key is yours.
Tell them the key unlocks your mink-lined cuffs at home, and your wife is waiting. :-)
''everyone keep out of the gutter?" A little roleplay is ''gutter?"
Variety, maybe.
besides, if it got your key back to you, why whine ? Heck, you shoulda tried it.

Gee, I wonder why the court police wouldn't want handcuff keys wandering around there. Perhaps they don't want someone letting someone free who shouldn't be?
nah....
Basically, not illegal to have, but a stupid place to have one.

I own pair of real handcuffs. And you are allowed to have them but u can not carry them in ur purse or in your car. My best friend is a cop and told me this when I bought mine. It Is considered a concealed weapon. Which I think is dumb... But it is what it is

I don't know!
Where would a civilian get police equipment from in the first place. The police don't merchandise as far as I'm aware.

for what do you need these handcuffs?
and further more, the only need for handcuffs i can think of wouldn't require you to carry the keys on your key chain!!
