From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Handcuffs are restraint devices designed to secure an individual's wrists close together. They comprise two parts, linked together by a chain, a hinge or in the case of rigid cuffs, a bar. Each half has a rotating arm which engages with a ratchet that prevents it from being opened once closed around a person's wrist. Without the key, the handcuffs cannot be unlocked and so the restrained person is unable to move their wrists more than a few centimetres/inches apart, making many tasks difficult or impossible. This is usually done to prevent suspected criminals from escaping police custody. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I am a law enforcement officer and i will be off-duty during my trip and i was wondering if there is any customs agents out there that could tell me if i will have a problem carring my pistol belt in my checked luggage. It will not have any wepons on it i.e. firearm, pepperspray, asp, etc...it will have the holster for the firearm and two sets of handcuffs. Asked by John R - Sun Jul 1 14:33:50 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. The real question is why? Why would you want to carry handcuffs and a pistol belt on a trip? Doesn't make any sense to me unless you are one of those security guards/wannabe cops. Answered by Sean_18 - Sun Jul 1 14:50:24 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "handcuffs" |
