THANK YOU! Gosh dang, just about the only applicable reply to the OP. I mean it's perfectly fine to post replies.... but geez, it's nice to see one actually answer the question asked!
A big part about the privilege of carrying a concealed weapon is that you remain in compliance with the law.
Minnesota is the same, you have to have your permit and a valid drivers license on you at all times while you are carrying. Sorry OP but you done goofed.

Most states that issue permits require the permit be with you when carrying the gun at a minimum. If caught with a gun you can be charged with an illegal possession count. In my experience these are usually dismissed in the interest of justice. In NYS the illegal possession charge would be dropped but the issueing authority may want to discuss the administrative violation with you. In NYS the judge may temporarily suspend the permit to teach a lesson. Good luck. i think you'll be OK. Just make sure your attorney approaches the charge as I described.Hello,
I was in an incident last week that I will not go public with until my trial is over, however I was charged with Ccw. I am a valid Ohio Ccw permit holder, however I did not have my permit on me during my arrest but once my name was ran it showed that I did have a valid permit??? was it right or wrong for the officer to charge me with Ccw?

You have a right to carry a gun. You have a privilege to carry it concealed. Just because the 2nd Amendment gives you the right to keep and bear arms, it doesn't mean that state and local governments don't have a right to add restrictions.I do not consider my right to carry a privilege. The second amendment guarantees it as a right. Having said that, I do always carry the paper the state of Indiana issued to me that says it's OK with them that I carry.

Well you would be wrong.I most sincerely doubt the founding fathers had any intentions that restrictions could or would be added by the states, counties or cities. My guess is that they would even have allowed a convicted felon to posses a gun once he had served his time for the crime committed.
There are also several Supreme Court rulings, including the recent rulings on Heller (or McDonald, I can't remember which), affirming the local right to regulate just about everything Except ownership in the home and the right of self defense. As much as we all want to see the laws enforced and keeping guns out of the hands of criminals, we can only do that through local, state, county, city, laws. Granted, there are a lot of gun laws on the books that we all want to go away, but we're still regulated by local laws.The Tenth Amendment
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Yep, it sucks that gun control laws only affect law abiding citizens and have no effect on criminals - other than to make their lives easier by disarming more victims.
