Well i dont believe Lying would be the correct response to his questions. If he directly asks are you going to say no? ".
Mybe I heard the question wrong, I thought the officer was referring to any unlawful guns.
Either way, I have been pulled over just once since 1976, and that was while openly armed. (I immediately acknowledged why he pulled me over, and appologized profusely for doing so and wasting his time, as I offered him my driver license.) The deputy asked if I was a cop (I really do not know why he asked that). I told him no. He asked if he would find any recent traffic records if he checked, I told him, "No, I haven't been pulled over since 1976."
It was a newly established school zone. He thanked me, told me to be careful, and let me go. He never handled my driver license.
I have driven through almost all Western and Central states, always with a firearm. Still, I have only been pulled over once since 1976 and nothing happened. I just don't seem to get pulled over. Don't know why, except that I truly try not to. And that... I once heard during a John Farnhum class back in the 20th Century.
Prior to 1976, the coppers usually had me get out of my car, frisked me, took whatever I was carrying away until I came back clean on all records... whether they saw a gun or not. They would put the unloaded pistol on the hood of the car, with ammo separated, then leave and either thump my head on the car, pull my feet out from under me, and say words to the effect of get lost! A hassle, but it was how it was back in the day. Durned hippies! I lost track of how many times I was frisked and no one found what I was carrying. I used to try to tell them, but they would find a pager (1976 voice pagers were larger that most carry guns), call me a liar-hippie and let me go. I cut my hair, then no more hassles.
