I left work in Millsboro a few minutes early, as i was heading North Bound on 13, i saw a police car with its lights on, i pulled over to let him pass but he pulled in behind me. I was not open carrying that day since my wife was home, and i left her my firearm, since my brother in law has our Ithaca Shotgun. I put my hands on the steering wheel as he approached he told me that my registration was expired, i told him i had no idea (which i honestly did not). I then informed him that inbetween the seats i had an empty holster with a magazine of ammo, he said ok, it was no big deal. He then went back to his car, about ten minutes later he returned, asked to see the holster, then proceeded to ask me where the gun was, i ecplained it was at home. He thought it was odd that i have 2 holsters, i explained that i simply transfer the gun from my Blackhawk Serpa holster to this holster when i open carry in the car. He asked me what type of gun it was and what it looked like, he asked if i had any weapons in the car, i said in the trunk in a cooler inside of my tackle box there was a bait knife. He then asked for me to get out of the car so he could search me. So hands up, i exit the car, they ask me to turn around and search me. Im all in the clear, then they tell me i am clear to go, with a warning about the registration. Over all next time i wont say anything, i just thought i was doing the right thing by telling them.
