bboy_mn:
We are tangling with definitions here. Hagrid has many time performed
magic, which assumes the use of a wand, with Dumbledores
authorization. Of course, Dumbledore conveniently never bothers to
wonder how this is possible without a wand. But he has never been
Officially allowed to use magic. Authorized=yes; Official=no.

bboy_mn:
When Harry and Hermione enter the bedroom in the Shrieking Shack,
Sirius has Ron's wand and uses it to disarm Harry and Hermione. So the
answer is yes, we have seen him use a wand; someone else's wand. You
are right, he does not have a wand of his own.
