Sounds like a good experience. No flame intended whatsoever, but through a strange quirk in GC 411.205, you are technically required to show your CHL, even if you aren't carrying under its authority (which you weren't). Even a Peace Officer with a CHL who is carrying under LEO authority is technically required to display CHL when asked for ID by another LEO or magistrate. This is a technicality with no penalty attached and I really don't think DCSO would have been upset about it while you're on property under your control.RAM4171 wrote:
They asked if I was the owner and I said no the VP. They asked for ID and I handed them my DL and business card not my CHL
I did'nt even think about the CHL until we were all 3 entering the building and decided to just let it ride. They were called out on a panic alarm and were very pumped. I brought them in called the alarm company and gave them the password and such. I conversed with the younger officer while I told the older officer to make himself at home when he asked to clear the shop and office.
All in all, pretty possitive experience. Response time was 2 min or less. Before the flaming starts, I was on property under my control so once I thought of it I didn't think that the CHL was neccessary. Apperantly my concealment is good since I was carrying a .45 with spare mag, a .380, and a tactical light, and nothing was said.
