He claims he uses the weapons for target practice at a Philadelphia range and notes the gun dealers’ letterhead can suggest official use.

Police Plan Lets Township Buy Guns Cheaper

Local gun dealers report police purchase plans yield discounts over 100 dollars per gun and avoid federal excise tax. In Delaware County, Police Commissioner Pisarek says he owns four such guns though they remain titled to the township. Dealers note several departments use the option, while officials deny use of guns at crime scenes or arrests.

Pisarek weighs need for gun as Chester Township officer faces tests

Chester Township police commissioner William Pisarek has not passed the yearly lethal weapons test required to carry a handgun in his police role. Sheriff Taylor questions the permit, saying it cites large cash dealings rather than duties, while Pisarek cites a license on file for concealed carry. He has been hospitalized by a lung condition and says protection concerns drove the decision. Tomorrow: a dispute over police radio code use.
