Pre-permit I'd have DL between fingers on the wheel, pistol on dash in slide lock & the mag across the dash & let them know when they walked up. I got one of two answers, profusely thanking me for informing them or "OK, don't touch it & I won't touch mine".Self describe to the non renewal of permit. Open carry, holstered on right side hip…..pulled over….no duty to inform….do you open mouth or keep quiet?
I’m not following you. Do you feel that a concealed carry permit should not be available to John Q Public?In the late 1970s, when you were stopped, if you handed any LE a CWP and told them you were armed, 100% of the time they would smile hand it back and say: Take care Podner and have a safe trip.......This was the "norm" until 1998.........After that the CWP was nuetered and opened to Everybody.
The first CWP was the strongest you could imagine. You could Carry EVERYWHERE. I have sat on jury duty with a Colt Mexican carry. You could aand we did carry EVERYWHERE. We actually could carry firearms where local LEs could not outside their jurisdiction."Neutered"? How so? Why would it need to be
This is the God's truth...we had to jump through so maany hoops to get a CWP it was amazing. It was set up so that you would give up trying. The initial program was set up for 3,500 people to have them as a test.....they never got close to that many. It was more of a political permit than anything. John Jenrette finally had to get their attention for mine to get issued. That was in 1976...the program started in 1975. Before that the Chief of SLED issued his own CWPs to his cronies. We are over 500,000 in issuance now. Think about that in a state of 5 million. My CWP number is 1XXX.It’s only supposed to be for the elite
Hope you read my following comments.I’m not following you. Do you feel that a concealed carry permit should not be available to John Q Public?
I hope you read my following comments. Get back to me after you read..you tell me if I stepped in anything.It almost sounds like someone stepped in it.

Your following comments cleared up my initial impression of your comment.I hope you read my following comments. Get back to me after you read..you tell me if I stepped in anything.
That's why I don't like leaving things "open". You have been here twice as I remember it. If somebody told me at today's gathering...Pink Vapor said only him and his friends should have CWPs. My reply would be simple...That's not the Pink Vapor I met, Can't be!Your following comments cleared up my initial impression of your comment.
I was also watching to see if folks went off the rails before you replied.
The first impression doesn't line up with who we know you to be.
Not recently. As @Beef15 mentioned, swing shift is a great way to catch attention. Or if you have to make a more-than-1hr drive to be there before 5am and you blend in with the folks leaving the bar after a short nap...Y'all sure do get stopped a lot, huh? I have yet to have to show a police officer my permit, because I haven't been stopped. Knocking on wood..... 😇
