like the cops say in bell county "You might beat the rap. But you wont beat the ride" Id print the law and be nice and polite
and most cases things will be ok
This advice will even work on the incompetent a$$hole officer with the tape measure! It can sure be hard with some of them. Most cops act like you don’t have a clue about a gun unless you have a badge like theirs. They have their reasons though.

I have had my run ins with the law on hunts. You just got to nice them to death and cooperate so you can get to huntn.
