Searched, but found dated posts - is PA still a "no duty to inform" state?

[rtba26]

Been carrying for 2+ months and trying to learn the laws/keep updated. Searched, but posts I found were dated/a few years old. Is PA still state where you DO NOT have to inform police that you are carrying during a traffic stop?

I have watched/read that you should hand over LTCP with divers license/insurance card. But re-thinking my right to privacy.

Correct, you have no duty to inform.

There is no legal requirement to tell a cop, and I wouldn't.

I would bring it up if I thought it were likely he would see my gun or if I was asked to get out of the car. "I have License to Carry." I wouldn't say "Gun" or "Firearm."

Inform at your own risk. Some cops are cool with it. Some aren't. Is it worth taking the chance?

What states are duty to inform?

[darkhunter]

I know Texas and Alaska are both a must inform state

[zeroflat24]

I'm pretty sure Ohio is must inform.

[knight0334]

The ones I know of for sure, but there are probably others:

OH, AK, NC, TX, SC, MI

You could probably Google a list.

I just try to have a general understanding of the states bordering ours (which aint a complicated task for PA) and whenever I travel I look up and print out the laws for all of the states I might be in.
