Been pulled over twice for speeding since I got a CCW in 2001. Both times, rolled down my window and kept my hands on the wheel until the officer came to my window and asked for my license and proof of insurance. Before reaching for either I told him I have my license and CCW in my back left pocket, and where my firearms are located, then asked how he wanted to proceed.
In both cases the officer asked me to keep my right hand on the wheel and get my IDs out with my left. Then vice versa to get the insurance card out of the glove box.
And in both cases, after checking out my IDs they gave me a warning.
This being rural Texas and me being a local may have simplified things, but I think if the goal is to not come across as a threat it’ll go best for everyone involved.
I get pulled over in Arizona and though I don’t need to ... I tell the officer that I am armed. The officer then asked where the weapons are and I say .. here and there and there and there ... in the front seat ... then in the back seat ... however, usually the officer says ... ok “my first name” as he/she already knows me.
