[QUOTE="carrrnuttt, post: 9903729, member: 10844"] I have been pulled over before with a loaded handgun in my glove. Having it in your glove is not considered "concealed" in AZ, so I was OK either way despite my CCW, but I went ahead and actually held out both hands outside the window as the officer approached, while stating out loud that I had a loaded handgun in the glove. The DPS officer [AZ highway patrol] had me roll down the passenger window, where he then reached into the glove to take out the weapon while confirming that that was the only weapon in my vehicle. He then went back to his vehicle and I assume checked out the gun's legalities, which I had no worries about. Afterwards, he simply issued me a warning for speeding, but he had me pop my trunk so he can place the handgun back there, which he placed in a resealable plastic bag. This was at 4:30 in the morning and the officer was alone, so I can only assume that he only gave me a warning because he felt relief for his safety by me declaring my weapon. Either that, or he felt bad for making me go through the trouble, since I did declare. My personal advice in this matter is, if you have nothing to hide, is to go ahead and declare. You just NEVER know how any stop can turn out, and declaring might just avoid any SERIOUS and possibly tragic misunderstandings during the stop. It also emphasizes the fact that you are a lawful citizen who simply made the mistake that got you pulled over, and not a bad element. [/QUOTE]
