Rapper Meek Mill was slapped in handcuffs by NYPD early Saturday morning as cops searched his car for a gun after he left a Manhattan nightclub, police sources said.

The Philly rapper was at Harbor NYC on West 46th Street in Hells Kitchen around 4:15 a.m. when a bouncer felt what he believed was a gun on him and told him to get rid of it, police sources told The Post.

The “Going Bad” rapper walked away and threw something into his car and went back into the club, the sources said.

Cops were tipped off and pulled him over when he left the club before searching the car, the sources said.

He was slapped in handcuffs temporarily, the sources said, but no gun was found.
