Another "What if....?"
Dan W:
The regulations of the Nebraska CHP do not allow you to conceal carry with ANY alcohol in your system. That would include locked in the glovebox. In Omaha that would probably also include anywhere inside the passenger compartment within reach. In an SUV, a lock box in a rear compartment might suffice.
Your only good option is locked in the trunk, unloaded , seperate from the ammuntion as the federal safe passage laws require.
NE Bull:
Not to be a prude :angel1:, but since I got my permit, I have chosen to partake in any adult beverages only in my own home and only if I don't plan on leaving the house anytime soon. But that's just my choice. I did the bar scene and outgrew it I guess. I also wouldn't feel safe leaving such an estalishment late at night without protection.
Well I guess another factor would be that the only time I go out is with my kids, and I've also made a rule not to drink around them. Like I said, these are just my choices, but something to think about.
David Hineline:
I would say your drinking is causing you a problem. You have a decision to make.

Please spare me the holier than thou alcohol pep talks, that's not what I was concerned about here. I'm 25, unmarried, no kids, so stopping at the bar on the way home from work once a month with my boss or a coworker for one or two beers does not mean I have a problem or that alcohol is causing me problems.
There are plenty of times that I'm carrying and choose not to have a drink and it's not an issue, but there are other times that I'd really like to go sit and BS with my coworkers or my boss at the bar for a half hour after work on some random day once every month or two. They're usually random, spur of the moment gatherings after a rough day in the office or after sending out a big project.
I'll just plan on getting a TSA lockbox for the cargo area and locking up the firearm separate from the ammunition. Thank you to all that helped. I appreciate your input.

What if...we could find a knowledgeable person from the Nebraska State Patrol to participate in a special Q & A forum to answer questions like these. I think it would be a great avenue for the State Patrol to connect with the NFOA. I would help find that person.
While I greatly appreciate the knowledge base of the forum leadership, I believe it would be an added dimension to the depth of the conversations.
I have a bunch of "what ifs" to ask ;D like, "Where does open carry become concealed carry?" If my XD40 is in the rear jeans pocket with the handle showing, is that open or concealed? I would not carry that way but you get the idea. ???
