Alamosa officer puts gun in man's face for holstered weapon

[buckshotbarlow]

just drive around with the guns hanging out the windows...works well for pdog shooting along c470, around BAFB and city of boulder. When they pull you over, make sure you hang them out of all windows.

Guy was damn smart to start the recording. I gotta do that next time i get pulled over...

Something about that story just doesn't smell right. Or maybe it was just I had such a hard time reading it due to poor grammar and punctuation.

Maybe both.

I'd like to see a copy of the complaint that's to be filed.

OK tell me if I did this right; Driving (w/my son) from CR to Highlands Ranch. Fumbling the phone trying to follow the G Maps and then see a DCS pull along side and look at me. The only law I think I am breaking at this point is the seat belt not being on.

Lights me up, pull over. He walks up and I immediately tell him I have my Glock sitting on the seat and point to it, also tell him I have my CCW. Ask if he wants me to step out so he can secure it because my wallet is in my back pocket. Don't want him spazzing out as I reach for the wallet. He says sure, I get out he get's it (muzzle flashes the boy) and I get back in.

He asks for my CCW, I think this is weird and proceed to say I don't need it and why does he want it. At the same time though and mid sentence, I correct my self and say, well it don't matter sure, and start to get it. While I am doing this he says your right to carry,extension of home blaha blah blah.

Says he pulled me for inputting into a cell and no seat belt. I explain I was actually following the GPS.

Show hime my CCW and he hands the gun right back! Says don't reach for it and keep hands were he can see and we are good. Sweet I think, he walks back runs me and comes back with a ticket for no seat belt and says "thank you for telling me".. Say no problem asks if I need help finding my way and then I am gone...

Only mistake I made was not having it on me concealed! IMHO

Critique me/ him... Ready go!

I never offer up that info. If the officers asks I will tell him.

Mine was in clear site, by my ass were i had to reach for wallet.... but yet you say you wouldn't offer up that info? Thinking you might be one of the ones with a gun to your head... In my case anyway, but I see your point. I normally don't unless it is in clear view and in the area of were I need to reach...

You said it was sitting on the seat, you didnt say you where sitting on it. Why are you keeping a gun in your ass anyway?

At least he'll always know where it's at.

I find it is best to immediately tell the office I have a gun, then quickly grab and pull it out to show them what I am talking about. Messages are best conveyed if you have props to demonstrate and confirm what you are verbally saying.

"I am armed, the gun is riiiiggghhhtttt.... HERE!!!"

I know someone who did exactly this, was drunk, did not have a conceal permit, AND was called in by assholes who had a beef with him. All that said, becaise the cops were professionals, everything went smoothly. Even got the gun back after a few months. THAT is how professional cops operate. A touchy situation is not an excuse for bad behavior.

That's as good as it gets. I've been pulled over twice since my ccw and they let me go because of the inconvenience.
