I am telling you all that it is not well known law to LEOs if they can legally detain someone to check for a license to carry (or if the person is an off-duty LEO, or a member of the national guard on-duty, etc.). Hell, some LEOs still think it is a license to carry a _concealed_ weapon. I have to them correct them on that and show them mine!
Therein lies the problem, we don't have a ruling as with motor vehicles (the Delaware decision that I cited). As you know, Indy317, in criminal law people are stopped (and then prosecuted) for allegedly a lot more than just carrying a pistol(s) while walking out of a coffee shop in Broad Ripple.
This would most likely come before a state appellate court in a civil suit.
