Re: Show CHL?

You may be able to make a case that you are not "...carry(ing) on or about (your) person" if it is locked up and inaccessible. Similar to if you had it in your trunk. But why bother to split hairs. Just show your CHL.

Second question, why would you carry it that way if you have your CHL? Why not in your console or on your person?

EDIT: Technically you could do above without a CHL under the MPA.
