Problem is the police don't know the law...
"Nigh invisible" is not "out of sight," even with your leg covering it.
IMO and IANAL
Maybe not, but it might be considered concealed.
Is that a question worth losing your LTC for?

We all draw our own lines and occasionally make choices that stretch the lines that could be negatively interpreted. Such as passing a misworded 30.06. I have occasionally carried a holstered handgun, in my vehicles side pocket. It is not on my person and could possibly be seen when I open the driver's door to get out or even possibly seen if viewed from a very specific angle. I believe I am within the law. I believe it is very unlikely it would ever be spotted. I suppose it could be argued that I am wrong, but I am not worried about it. If I ever get busted, I will be sure to post as a warning to others that it may be a bad idea.

While I'm not a fan of the magnet solution. I do believe It would be considered concealed by law at least while the driver was the vehicle.

Liberty,

We do draw our own lines and I was not throwing stones. God knows I've blurred, and crossed, my share. The original question came from a new LTC and like with my kids, I err on the conservative side first.

No slight intended my friend.
