You could also say that he didn't have his gun's holster because it was on his duty belt, next to the badge on his shirt, but he brought the gun with him...

Toss on a jacket or a sweatshirt and you got what he thought would be sufficient for such an endeavor.
If such an "endeavor" was so important that it required supervisor approval and an undercover operation, I find it hard to believe he thought a sweatshirt was sufficient...one would have to not be too sharp to think that.

OneGuy, you're a LEO too correct? Can you tell me you would go to make a probable arrest without your badge?

Bailey, you know the statutes well. All LEOs can carry concealed anytime they want but do they have to have proof they are a LEO while carrying?
