Pulled over by Nebraska State Patrol
Gary:
Has anyone thought of placing the unloaded gun in a locking bank bag? That does a couple things. It gives control over the handgun to the officer, without giving up control of the handgun from the owner. I believe the main emphasis of the CHP statutes where an officer or EMT personnel may take possession of your firearm, is for public safety. The public is perfectly safe while your gun is locked away in this type of bag.

Interesting to say the least. I dont see why the firearm would have to be unloaded though. If they ask for it, slip it in the bag and snap the ready and waiting lock into place and hand it over. Nothing wrong with that.

Lacking knowledge on this: Appears the firearm just became "concealed" (possibly without permit?). Also seems suspious to mask a firearm this way when a LEO is present.

One thing I see on this forum is a huge amount of people that are scared to pass gas in front of a leo. And that ladies and gentleman is what scares me the most about our modern society! I men come on, any given day you see a patrol car driven 5mph under the posted speed limit and the 20 cars driving slower than him for fear of??????
The best thing you can do is educate your mind and surely your ass will follow it free and clear from any self imposed handcuffing.

Part of it is seeing LEO reaction to firearms throughout youtube etc...
Part of it is just attempting to avoid having to deal with the situation...
I personally don't ever take the weapon out of the holster unless storing in seat lock box or some very unusual circumstance (see some of the reloading clinic stuff). And when around LEO I'm just aware of body language and hand positioning to avoid coming off as threatening or similar. The few times I've had official contact with LEO have all gone smoothly. A polite and friendly attitude with a touch of respect goes a long way ;)
