Can I get in trouble for my CC gun printing?

If your in philly and OC with a LTCF You can expect to get "inconvenienced" as the chief put it. Most anywhere else the word is out and you won't get hassled. I OC all the time. Up here on the north end of the state. In all the years I have gotten flack twice and not from an LEO.

I did, a little.
I was in a Home Depot here in Florida about 15 years ago and someone noticed the outline of my Kel Tec P11 in my back pocket. It was the pocket pistol to have back then.
When the wife and I exited the store a police officer was waiting for me who stopped me and asked if I had a pistol in my pocket?
I said "yes" and the officer said "don't reach for it, which pocket is it in?"
He removed the Kel Tec, unloaded it and asked for my permit and ID. Once satisfied he returned my credentials and unloaded pistol to me and told me not to reload until I left the parking lot.
Everything was very civil and considering I could have been charged with a crime for violating my permit I was very happy with the result.

I've somewhat printed many times in Florida with no LEO issues. I have gotten a few looks and a few conversations. No issues and we all went about our way. The definition of concealed in Florida is: concealed from the ordinary sight of another individual. Since your pocket pistol was concealed from ordinary sight, the LEO checked you out and let you go. There is no case law concerning printing in Florida, but the way things are going, someone will end up being a test case I imagine. My apologies for the thread jack.
