I know a few years ago I was stopped in Yadkin County on I-85, had a .36 cal Navy Colt in the holster right in front of my seat on the passenger side. laying against the trans tunnel on my car. State trooper saw it and asked if if was loaded to which I replied it was. He asked me if he could hold onto it while we talked to which I asked if I would get it back. His reply was yes. After our discussion and his issuance of a speeding ticket he placed my gun on the back seat and told me if I happened to get stopped in another state to tell them I had it in the car. Never had any problems and never searched my vehicle for any other weapons, but did ask what was in the gun case on the floor, to which I replied powder, shot and percussion caps. With my permission he checked it and put it back on the floor. One of the best experiences I've ever had in a traffic stop in any state.
