North Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit holders are given a recommendation to hold their hands out the window when law enforcement pulls you over; it is a courtesy to law enforcement because your Concealed Weapons Permit is reported to DMV. The flip side is that law enforcement sees Concealed Carry citizens (except for a minority) as partners in stopping crime.

That’s a pretty good pistol, but watch out, the slide can slice your hand a bit.

Having a CCW doesn’t waive the gentleman’s 4th amendment rights or serve as probable cause to search his car. I would like to know exactly how this stop went down.

But an internal police review concluded his stop and search were lawful and did not violate police protocols.


Then “police protocols” and the law need to be changed.

There are no “good” cops. A good analysis below.

I’ll bet that Bersa Thunder 308 has one hell of a kick. Didn’t know they made that caliber. I’m glad I bought the Bersa Thunder 380.

I go out of my way to transit Maryland on I-81 route rather than on the I-95 Corridor, five or six times a year. It takes me an extra 20 minutes each time, but I want to spend as little time in Maryland as possible. It goes without saying that I don’t spend one thin dime when I’m there.

From reading the South Carolina law on carrying a concealed weapon, I believe it says that if you have an out of state carry permit you may carry it only in your car and it must be unloaded.

In a conservative state, with a conservative governor and Republican legislature it's hard to believe they haven't voted to recognize out of state carry permits. The NRA needs to lobby for that in 2015.

That’s true for most “permit” states in the South I thought.

A smart CCW holder would leave his car at home and rent if they plan on going on a road trip through Commieland Stasi states like Maryland.

Cops look at plates and run the tags to see what they can find (like permit holders).

The wife should be required to watch this:

Very worth the 48 minutes. It seemed like a good time to repost this.

...apologies from the MDTA. But an internal police review concluded his stop and search were lawful and did not violate police protocols.

And so, nothing changes...

If he said the gun wasn’t in the truck and then the wife said something different, then there is going to be an issue. The fact that he separated the two for a mere traffic stop sounds like a pretty sketchy fishing expedition.

Perhaps the governor of Florida should issue an executive order stating that Florida will no longer recognize driver’s licenses or marriages from Maryland since Maryland doesn’t recognize Florida’s CC permits.

Passengers in a vehicle that has been stopped by the police are under NO obligation to speak, answer or manipulate the vehicle and its contents in anyway (i.e., roll down a window).

During a traffic stop, the driver would do well to tell passengers, “Don’t say or do anything and keep your hands visible.”

I had a borrowed vehicle stolen this year. I called the police and gave them my name and address. A second later they said that I came back as a CCL and asked if there was a gun in the car.
