Since notification is not required under Texas law, unless asked for ID, then the officer was probably wondering why you felt the need to make this information available. I think it created a little dissonant cognizance for him, and he had to process it. I don't think he thought you were wrong to make sure he knew about it, but he also probably was a little curious as to why you felt the need.

...agree with this...the one non-traffic incident I've been involved in...cops got there...I carried the offender's gun out to them by the barrel...gave it to one of 'em to unload, pointed out the one I'd taken it from...they went in and arrested him and brought the others out to question...after all that, one asked for my ID for the report...when I gave him both...he looked at me and said "he's lucky you didn't just shoot him."...told him the guy never knew I had a gun...
