Carrying during traffic stop

[gunman41mag]

I haven't been pulled over in 10 years. But if I do I will not inform unless asked. I would say yes my gun is in my locked gun vault which is secured to my passenger side floorboard. I unholster and lock it when driving to prevent unauthorized access to my gun in case I am in a accident and knocked unconscious. I would show my LTCH if asked but will not consent to search or open the gun vault.

If you need your gun, it's gonna take a while for you to take the keys from the ignition & open your vault to get your gun

I have the model with push button combo with finger grooves, can open in the dark pretty quickly.

Glad you can get your gun quickly

None of the above.

I won't tell an officer right away.

I won't tell them if they ask.

It doesn't depend on my mood.

"Why am I being detained?"

Yep,
There is only one way A N Y O N E will know if I'm packin heat.

I've never been busted or harrassed for being strait up.
Tell them, produce your license and if asked make you gun visible and safe.

I have only had this happen once but, since it was late at night on a very dark county road, I informed the officer that I did have a gun in the vehicle. He responded that he suspected that when he saw that pink piece of paper behind my license. The only question he asked was where the gun was. No ticket - no hassle. From reading posts I understand that this is not always the result of providing this information.

One thing I have learned over the years is to keep the pink piece of paper in a different spot other than directly behind your driver's license. Since I am a ham radio operator, I keep my FCC license directly behind my driver's license. My LTCH is further back under a couple of other things I carry in my wallet.

I believe in "Don't ask, don't tell". If he doesn't ask, I don't tell. I'm legal and one of the good guys but several of us, "The City Market Six", learned the hard way about that issue.

I've seen enough of what my fellow INGOers have been put through by "bad apples" in gun control enforcement. I'll lie right to their face if they ask me invasive questions.

Only if they ask, or if I'm asked to get out of the vehicle

I probably won't say a word either way unless there is a way that he may see it first.
