As told to me, it appeared to be training exercise for the 20 yo who had a senior CG officer(?) observing. They decided to disarm well after they were into the inspection. It was close quarters, he was advised to put his hands on his head with fingers intertwined. And that the CG was going to remove his weapon from his waistband..... My friend was more worried about being shot in the nuts than normal operating procedures at that point.... My friend (wrongly) got agitated and is pressing the point to USCG Boston Command about exactly what is their protocol, as this certainly doesn't sound like procedure was followed.
We should at least know what to expect... (and it should not include them just leaving the loaded weapon sitting on a seat cushion as they disembarked... at least he got his gun back, but their handling of a loaded weapon was less than comforting)

“Americans have the right and advantage of being armed, unlike the people of other countries, whose leaders are afraid to trust them with arms.” – James Madison.
