Too often, trying to "do the right thing" and disclosing more information than necessary actually causes more problems than the situation itself warrants. In this situation, where he was completely within the law, I think he should've acted as though he was no different than any other citizen walking in the building.
Last I heard, there is no legal duty to declare a holster.
