Perhaps I’m being naive but I just don’t see any reason to detain and perhaps harass someone who is in compliance with the law.

This is exactly what happened to me the one time i was
stopped and approached by an officer while carrying.
I handed over registration and when i was getting my DL
out of my wallet he noticed my carry permit. He asked if I
had a weapon in the truck and i said i did, in the console.
He then very politely asked me to not reach into the console
while he was present. No problem.
These guys are just trying to stay alive.
I fully understand that.
