Unless he actually goes postal it doesn't matter. He hasn't committed a crime in the eyes of the law. If somebody else goes postal and he protects himself he'll have to deal with the legal system regardless of whether his boss said he could be packing.

You don't owe your boss an explanation if he is firing you.

I wonder if the OP works at Fry's. Those super nerds always concern me. Too much caffeine, nicotine, accutane, and 1st person shooter for their own good.
Its not really a question of whether he actually did anything or not. As we have learned from the Vegas Costco incident, some people freak out and embellish the facts when they see or even hear of a gun. In an environment like the OP described it sounds like co-workers could be very prone to over reacting. I know concealed means concealed but everyone at some point is going to have a shirt ride up or something and at his job it won't be someone just telling him he's exposed. It could well mean the police telling him at gunpoint that he accidentally flashed it which is way more than just being fired. Its a headache I wouldn't want to risk.
