My question grew out of a current thread asking if it should be mandatory to inform a police officer that you are armed during a traffic stop.
Whether you choose to inform or not is your business (unless dictated by law) and I don’t have a problem with that but one of the most common reasons I hear for doing so is so that the officer doesn’t discover the gun by accident.
My question is has this ever actually happened to anyone and how did it pan out?
Thanks for your time
ETA: I don't think I asked this clearly enough, have you ever NOT informed an officer that you were armed and then had him find the gun?
If so, how did it pan out?
Thanks again
