that's an entirely different situation. in most cases a person carrys a handgun for personal protection,
How's an empty handgun going to protect you?
If anything, carrying an unloaded handgun could get you shot.

My instructor was different he wouldnt even let us bring our own weapons he supplied them,his reason was that he didnt know what kinda shooters he had in his class nor did he know our guns but he did know his,pretty much kept it safe for everybody.
Hey Buckfever, as far as the TN law its the pistol must be unloaded and the clip either lock in the trunk of the glove box. If you have one of those Conceal Carry Permits it wise to keep your hands in clear view and inform the officer and he will either have you hand it to him or he will take it out for you. After the officer finishes his business he will unload it and hand it back to you. I hope this clears it up for you.
Gun wasn't loaded, but I had bullets with me, actually the mag was loaded. And my house just got broken into in Maine for the 3rd time, that's why I was headed up, never mind, for protection, should I need it. Traveling that distance by myself, you bet your bottom dollar, I am gonna have something with me. Thanks Bruce, for the info, lets see what they have to say.
