I would agree with that, but I'm willing to bet that the federal govt. will say that no federal law has licensed concealed carry, so from a federal view, it isn't lawful carry.

It's unfortunate that a test case, and the risk inherent to the person invovled, is needed to sort it out.

Actually, a test case is not needed...

One can ask for a Declaratory Judgment.

Most states provide for the means to petition the court to provide guidance in clarification of the law.

For example, Indiana provides http://www.in.gov/legislative/ic/code/title34/ar14/ch1.html

Thats good to know, thanks for the info.
