    Smile LEO encounter in the Mall yesterday afternoon.

    Went with the wife and kiddo into a mall that I have never been into before.
    (Downtown Dallas area.)
    Entered through a department store entrance. No 30.06 sign/s visible anywhere.
    Encountered 'numerous' LEO's working the mall (8 in total). No idea why they where so many cops in the mall pulling what appeared to be security duty.
    My wife wanted to find the 'Louis Vuitton' store, No, we can't afford to buy a $1500.00 - $5000.00 purse, but it was for shits n giggles I guess. LOL
    A nearby LEO approached us and asked what store we where looking for.
    I felt confident, not nervous at all, as I spoke with the LEO with my Glock 27 concealed IWB at my 4 O'Clock side.
    He smiled and even chuckled with me a bit as he pointed us in the direction of the store. Overall good experience.
    I wonder how he would have reacted if he knew I was carrying.
    MARK IT ZERO!

    Never liked the idea of public LE doing private security, otherwise all I can say is you met a very polite and helpful Officer.

    Wait, so even in a situation where a leo approaches you to help out you still have inform then of your concealed weapon. If that's true, that's retarded

    Any contact with Law Enforcement, you are required to notify them that you are a permit holder, and that you are carrying or not..... At least that is how it is in Ohio....... If he would of been a jerk and decided to randomly "id" you, here in Ohio it would of alerted him that you have a CCW and it probably would of not ended in a positive manner, if he was not aware ahead of time.

    Fortunately we don't have to inform in colorado, and they just changed the law where if they run your DL it will not pop up on there databases. That can't just id you with out some sort of reason either
