I drove through a DUI check point and the officer wanted me to pull over and get out of the car. I did, but told him I had a gun. He said that was fine and told me to get out and just put my hands on the roof when I did and they'd take care of the gun for me. I got out, hands on roof, someone took the gun (I told them to be careful since there was no external safety). Someone took it back to a cruiser while the other officer took me to the side to do a road side. I got about 20 seconds into the road side before he abruptly stopped and shook his head at his partner. Apparently I had been telling him the truth when I told him I had had only one beer at dinner three hours ago.

They put the gun on the passenger side floor with the action open, mag out, and tossed the now unchambered round on the floor and told me to have a good night. This was in Federal Heights by the way.
Cool! Any reason why you do not get your CCW???
