I was wondering if anybody has had any implications while wearing a concealed carry badge?
 
Welcome from the Pine Barrens of Southern New Jersey.

When I took the course for my Utah CFP, getting a CCW case with badge was very much discouraged. The rationale being in possession of a badge could lead to a charge of impersonation of a LEO.
 
CCW badge

I always counseled my classes (CCW) against it.
Reason: many states it is illegal
Reason #2 as a CCW you are not a lawman and you don't want to be mistaken for one.
Reason #3 concealed means concealed, don't advertise

My 2 cents, your mileage may vary
 
Welcome from Wisconsin!

I don't recommend carrying a badge of any kind unless you're officially allowed to. Concealed is concealed so you wouldn't want advertise by having a badge pinned to your chest. You won't impress any LEO by flashing an unofficial badge to convince him/her that you're allowed to carry. That's what your official issued license/permit is for.
 
Welcome from Texas dannycanada. Great forum for all things S&W, have fun, learn lots, share what you know.

Badges are not a good idea if you desire to be truly concealed.
