“Officer, I have a firearm in my vehicle, I have a CCW permit. “ Your hands on the steering wheel.

Very simple and deeply appreciated by the police officer who has no idea who you are or your intentions.

You will have a minute or two to retrieve your proof of insurance and vehicle registration from the glove compartment, and time to get your driver's license and concealed-carry license.

Some REALLY bad advice from the author there. You do NOT want to be digging around in the car while waiting for the officer to get there. He doesn't know that your innocent actions in trying to be helpful are in order to find your registration. He doesn't know if you're looking for a gun, hiding drugs, or what.

Hands on the wheel until he gets to your window, and if he asks for registration, tell him that it's in the glove box and you're going to get it if that's OK.

I would just include my CCW permit with my license, reg, and insurance.

State the license first, then the gun.
