• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.
  • The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Not illegal but unwise as if they happen to see your handgun, you will be looking down muzzles(s) in the hands of very nervous cops who will most definitely feel you lied to them by not telling them you were carrying. If I was them (was never a dream for me) that's how I would feel about it.
agreed. not sure if it counts as legal or not...either way not a smart idea. If i didn't want to let them know, i would refuse to answer before i lied....

but as for me, if i don't tell them on my own (which i usually do) i'll answer honestly if asked....everytime...

Unfortunately some feel the need to live dangerously.
