When is it legally required to inform a law enforcement officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon in Montana?

  1. Only when asked by the officer

  2. At all traffic stops

  3. Upon officer approach

  4. There is no legal requirement

The correct answer is: There is no legal requirement

In Montana, there is no legal obligation for an individual to inform a law enforcement officer that they are carrying a concealed weapon unless directly asked by the officer. This means that even if an officer approaches a person for any reason, the individual is not required to disclose their concealed carry status unless prompted. The focus of this law is to respect the rights of lawful gun owners while also allowing law enforcement to fulfill their duties effectively. Understanding this aspect of Montana's gun laws is crucial for responsible firearm ownership and interactions with law enforcement.
