"I would comply, produce the required documents, and remember the advice taught during my concealed carry class many years ago............."I have a concealed carry permit and I am armed. The revolver is holstered in my left front pocket. How do you wish to proceed?"

I have done exactly that on several stops (1 ticket, a couple of warnings). Three "Thank you for telling me" responses.

In fact, I wonder if telling the cop may have softened him up a little, so that he gave me a warning (once was following too close to an idiot in the pass doing 1/2 the speed limit while waiting for a chance to pass=the other was speeding on the Rez in the boonies)
