I see these official looking badges in Gold, Silver and Gunmetal finishes on the internet and was wondering if they are legal to carry as long as you have a CCW permit?
Also do you think this is a good idea?
The places that sell them throw out a scenario like where a private citizen with a permit has just shot and killed or wounded a bad guy, there is lots of confusion from other patrons and the police are coming in the door. Someone yells "he has a gun" and the CCW holder shouts that he has a license and shows his shiny badge.
Do any of you own such a badge? How do you carry it?

Have any of you drawn a gun on someone in public and what were the circumstances that followed. Thank you for your reply's. Bob
