Re: Questions about Conceal Carry

The_Vigilante wrote:After 4+ months of waiting I finally received my CHL today and have several questions regarding procedure when stopped by LE. 1) I am stopped by Texas DPS/Sheriff's Office/Local Police Department. I show them my Driver's license and CHL license but on this particular day am not carrying. However, I do have a concealed pistol in the car with me. Am I obligated to disclose that weapon to the LEO? If I am carrying am I obligated to disclose I have an additional concealed weapon in the car? 2) I am stopped by an out-of-state LEO. Am I obligated to also show him my CHL in addition to my Driver's license? I will probably have more questions in the future but these are my immediate concerns. Thanks
1) Yes, show'em the CHL. if it's in your car, it's "on or about your person." only mention the weapon if the officer brings it up. only mention the location if the officer asks where it is. if you have more than one, then when asked, "Do you have any weapons on you?" I would respond with, "Yes, I have 1,2,4,176"
2)Whatever the laws are of THAT state. if an out of stater stops you in texas.... :headscratch I dunno.
