That did it!!! I'm going over to "Glock Talk" forum to hang out for a while!!!

When the trooper & I lifted the heavy wheel chair into the back of my truck the handle caught my jacket & lifed it to expose my gun in front of the TX Trooper. sense the trooper knew I had it it was no big deal. If I hadent said anythig I would have been jackked up at gun point!!!! This is why i told them because we were very close lifting things together. I'm not that supid to announce to every LEO. I think I did the right thing in this case!!!
I was offended but I got over it already!!!!

Plus I showed him my CHL Badge!!!!!

Friendly Encounter:
On the Hi Way shoulder-
My elderly Aunt & Uncle hit a deer on 281 S last night. My aunt is in a wheel chair & very sick. They called me to pick them up. When I arrived they were all OK but the car was totaled. The County Sheriff deputy& DPS Trooper arrived shortly after me. I was armed. They were very friendly. They were going to help me get my aunt into the wheel chair to move her to my truck. Working that close to a DPS & Deputy made me nervous. I would rather them know I was armed that have one of them bump into me or notice my gun. I said before we start I better show you this & handed them my lic with my CHL. I told them I was currently armed & asked them if thay wanted me to put it in the truck. the reply was...... "No problem. Leave it on, your perfectly OK " both LEOs were very humorus to help my 87 year old uncle calm down (who is quit a commedian him self). By the time the process was over we were all rolling in laughster!!!
I know not every encounter will be this smooth but I was treated with dignity & that was cool. Just though I would share this.
