By this definition of concealed, it would be impossible to not conceal a typical handgun on the typical person. Maybe if you had a really BIG gun it would be visible from every angle.

So long as the officer doesn't blink, your firearm would then be visible at all times.

Some states have laws for printing (gun shows through shirt) and for accidental exposures.
