In Arkansas when we request a DL check the return information will indicate if the subject in question has a CCL.
As far as providing your CCL to an officer during a traffic stop in Arkansas, here is what the law actually says:
5-73-315. Possession of license -- Identification of licensee.
(a) Any licensee possessing a valid license issued pursuant to this subchapter may carry a concealed handgun.
(b) The licensee shall:
(1) Carry the license, together with valid identification, at any time when the licensee is carrying a concealed handgun; and
(2) Display both the license and proper identification upon demand by a law enforcement officer.
HISTORY: Acts 1995, No. 411, § 2; 1995, No. 419, § 2; 2007, No. 827, § 102.
