Couple CT questions:

[blume357@]

Friend over on the Ruger Forum asked a few questions specifically about Concealed Carry in Ct.

Is there any requirement to inform a police officer if you're stopped that you're CCWing? I've read all through the laws and haven't found anything specifically saying you have to. Does anyone know if they can tell if someone has a permit by running their driver's license?

I don't think thereiquirement. It will usually get out of a ticket, though. = )

BTW: I've only not informed once because the LEO was a total prick. Didn't want the hassle.

I was trying to figure out the same thing. This webpage has a little information. What do you think of their reliability?

I'm looking for that information too.

I'm also trying to figure out why my posts here are not showing up.

Edit: Hmm, this one showed up...
