There is no legal requirement for the handgun to be holstered, but please do. There is no legal requirement that the handgun be locked away while you are not in the vehicle. but it is a good idea.BigBlueDodge wrote:So, just want confirmation if I understand this correctly. While driving, I can carry my firearm on me (in a holster) while driving in my vehicle. If I leave my vehicle, I must leave the gun concealed (for example, in the glove box, under the seat, etc), correct? I'm waiting for my CHL, and I want to start getting used to bringing my firearm with me during my waiting period, and I want to make sure that I am 100% legal in doing so.
