Like many similar threads, this one has several forks, one of which is the ever popular, Are you required to inform an officer if you are carrying.

Unless you get traffic stopped so frequently that subtly and nuance are things you can think about under what for most of us would be an extremely stressful situation, then ignore subtly and nuance.

If you drive in more than one state, you should adopt a procedure that will work regardless of the state's requirement concerning informing an officer about carrying. Should you guess wrong, there are lawyers on this forum that would be glad to help you after you have messed up. I have created and practiced a procedure that will work and have probably posted it in other threads in this forum.

I don't want to bet on my limitations. How about you?
