texiss33,
Seems like a very good encounter. I don't think having a CHL helps in these instances, but I sure don't think it hurts (with most LEOs). As long as you are courteous, they will probably treat you well.

Re: clear weapon before surrendering it to LEO?
I think I would simply tell the LEO that the weapon he is asking for is loaded with one in the chamber...then I would ask him how he wants to go about obtaining possession of it. If he wants you to hand it over to him/her, then I would slowly hand it to him, butt first. If you take the time to drop the mag, and the rack the slide...that is waaaaay to much jacking around with your weapon when the officer has not asked you to do so. I think most LEOs are great about us CHLers, but they probably don't appreciate anyone manipulating their weapon in any fashion not requested.
