Whats wrong with his hip?
Seriously, no one touched this one?
You can keep the gun holstered, on your hip as long as clothing does not cover it up.

That law makes virtually 100% of all non-CHP gun carriers felons.I do not know 100% on this issue, there is that pesty federal law that 1,000 feet of a school.
Keep in mind.... that's television.I think the idea was from watching cops all the time,

This is what I do, holstered on hip. Quick question though, if holstered on right hip and center console and/or seatbelt obscures it from view, does it become concealed, hidden from common observation? My view is maybe so. I have considered this and if I get pulled over, I will make sure it is positioned where it cannot be considered concealed, such as having the holster positioned more towards the front and not obscured by anything. Comments?
Of course a permit would make this issue go away, but I do not want to give the Alexandria police my fingerprints. Maybe I should anyway.
Ok.. i know it's COPS, but it is still TV.I think the idea was from watching cops
I'd get the permit, so you can avoid that federal "invisible lines 1000 feet" school zone disarm stuff.
A friend and I were at the range one day. As we were leaving, he was putting his unloaded and cased firearm in his trunk and paused as he was closing the trunk lid. He asked me "is what I'm doing really legal?"
I asked, "what?"
He said, "I don't have a permit, so am I allowed to have my gun in my car like this?"
Never mind the fact that he didn't bother to ask this question until now; I laughed, and to emphasize the absurdity of his question, I said "you could load it and put it on the dashboard if you wanted..." (it was a rhetorical statement; legal, but not safe)
He reacted with surprise and disbelief.
I said "seriously, though, you need to get a holster for that and just carry it on your hip; no permit required."

In my opinion this is still the best illustration of the "seated, not concealed" concept. It does not just apply to restaurant booths.Just like a person sitting dominant side to the wall in a restaurant booth
would this be ok for carry in my car
or would it be consealed
yeah thats what i thought i just wanted to know what others thought i carry on the pssenger seat most of the time
Maybe you could duct tape it to the dashboard.
