^ That seemed to be the sense I got as well. From what I read before traveling through quite a few reservations it seemed like they could take your gun since they don't recognize State issued CHLs and hold it until you meet with their council and pay a fine (some just keep "forfeited" weapons).ScottDLS wrote:...
I think the more common practice on reservations is for the Tribal Police to use their civil jurisdiction to relieve you of your gun if they discover it, and then basically say "what are you going to do about it?".
Anytime I'm about to cross into a reservation I stop, unload and bury the weapons with the luggage. Not ideal but better than having my gun legally stripped from me on a US highway.
