What must you do if you're stopped by a law enforcement officer while carrying a concealed firearm in South Dakota?

  1. Nothing

  2. Immediately inform the officer you're carrying

  3. Only disclose if asked directly

  4. Hand over the firearm to the officer

The correct answer is: Immediately inform the officer you're carrying

When carrying a concealed firearm in South Dakota, it is important to immediately inform a law enforcement officer if stopped. This is necessary for the safety and transparency of both the officer and the individual carrying the firearm. Option A, doing nothing, is incorrect because it may be seen as a violation of the law. Option C, only disclosing if asked directly, is also incorrect because it is best to be proactive and inform the officer right away. Option D, handing over the firearm to the officer, is not necessary and could potentially lead to a dangerous situation. Therefore, option B is the best course of action in this scenario.
