Where are you getting this? From my reading of the statute, you could be fined for failing to produce the permit if asked for it while swimming - no guns involved. Whether it'd be applied is a separate matter, but I didn't see language limiting the requirement to produce to where the permit was being used.
You are correct. The first sentence under the Duties of Permittees section, on the [url]http://www.lsp.org/handguns.html#duties [/URL] link, states; "The permit shall be retained by the permittee who shall immediately produce it upon the request of any law enforcement officer."
If a LEO asks for it, you have to show it. It does not matter if you have a weapon or not.

i agree the wording is poor. in most states the CHP is permission to carry a handgun concealed. ergo, if you are not carrying a handgun concealed you do not need a permission slip. a few questions, how would a LEO know you needed a CHP if you are not carrying? you cited the HP page, [if it is not law it doesn't matter what the LE thinks], do you have the actual law that states this? do you have any case history were this was ruled on?
believe me i am not trying to be argumentative, i am trying to get weather or not this is true. if it is you seriously need to have it change
