Could we change this line to... Dial 911 and grab XD Tactical 45 please? Fourteen rounds of 45 just makes me feel better. ;-)
Well, don't have an XD (yet) so how about a G21?

Hypothetical situation--Neighbor is out of town and asked you to keep an eye on his home. Middle of the night you here a window break next door. Dial 911 and grab 1911 as you are talking with LEO. Inform operator you are armed. Never enter neighbors house but waiting outside in case they leave before LEO arrives. You could be hooked up for this?

Asked my son in law that is LEO same question. He said under state law yes you could. However, most LEO would disarm you, check for BG, get facts and unhook. He also said it would be better if you stayed on your side of property line in case of anti-2A LEO (and there are a few). Still would be hooked up but legally can't arrest. (he also said a signed letter from the neighbor giving you permission to enter his house is a must even if you are not armed)
