Call for a man with a gun beating people with a glock. We find the guy matching the look-out and sure enough he has a G22 in his waistband. Guy could not have been more agreeable about the situation. Showed us his CCW permit and his property was quickly returned to him after an investigation revealed he had committed no crime. He was advised of the whole story you guys are only getting part and he was quite a nice/understanding guy. It was a total learning experience for the shift. 15-20 officers got to see a real CCW permit for the first time!!!!!

The guy responded in a manner that made us comfortable and we did the same. All in all an annoyance for him but it had to be done but a great experience on both sides. Kind of cool to actually see one in person.

Ok, great story. Now, who pays for making a false police report? Surely dispatch has the number that called in the "complaint".

Good news story thanks.

Highly likely the CCW carrier is a member here, or another progun forum. No pressure, but look forward to hearing his story someday.

I recently met a fellow with a NYC carry permit, at a buddies party. Unicorns do exist apparently.

How much did the fellow you met have to bribe the NYPD for his permit?

I hear you. I'm sure the application fee alone was well over $400. http://www.nyc.gov/html/nypd/downloads/pdf/permits/HandGunLicenseApplicationFormsComplete.pdf

Who is "we"?

swinokur · Jul 7, 2016

I have had two encounters with VA LEO's in the past 4 years while driving. I informed them I was CCW and asked how they wanted to proceed.

i didn't get shot.

Smith, Wesson and ElijahJudah?

Whaaaaat? A "Man Bites Dog" story, and NO media coverage! I am shocked!

same here with wv and va (although i didn't inform but responded if and when asked). in fact the one va guy scolded me for NOT having my carry piece on me.

Doctor_M · Jul 7, 2016

Great post, but just a bit sad that we have to look at law-abiding CCW holders as a rarity. Thanks, DC and MD. WV is looking better and better to me every day.

I make sure that my hands are in plain sight first and foremost. An LEO doesn't know what's in your mind but as long as he/she can see your hands, and you don't make any threatening moves, the rest can be worked out. It's not a difficult concept to understand.

Any idea of the percentage of officers in DC are aware that conceal carry licenses are issued in DC? Does the department issue notices to the men and women of the department? As a DC permit holder it's crossed my mind if by some chance I was stopped would the officer be aware that DC does issue? (sparingly)
