That seems strange, If Harry becomes an Auror wouldn't he always be at risk of being disarmed, defeated, out dueled, thus losing control of the Elder Wand? Didn't he say he has had enough excitement for a lifetime at the end of the book?

Here is where we get to the point of the reader doing more analysis than the author.

Yeah, it seems to shoot my theory down. Seems silly of him to go into that field, given the Elder Wand shenanigans.

That assumes someone wants to resist arrest from the Chosen One carrying the Elder Wand.

I was just stating what she wrote in the book when Harry was talking about putting the Wand back in Dumbledore's tomb for that reason.

Well he's not carrying the Elder Wand, it went back in Dumbledore's tomb after he fixed his Phoenix wand with it. And there is always a hotshot wanting to make a name by taking down the top guy. Heck a simple disarm spell would pass ownership of the Wand.

Heck a simple disarm spell would pass ownership of the Wand.

Apparently a simple punch to the face followed by a wand-grabbing will transfer ownership, IIRC.

 

[Hijinks]

Hrm you wouldn't think they would let him be an Auror, having used (or tried to use) two of the unforgivable curses.

 

[Pyrex]

Apparently they really aren't that unforgivable afterall.

Harry has used them, Draco has used them, even McGonnagal has used them; yet none of them (apparently) were ever brought up on charges.
