I don't know how the carry permit laws work. Under what circumstances may a permitted gun carrier lawfully unholster his/her weapon?
I'd be worried about a guy who walked into a store holding his 9mm in his hand as opposed to it being in his holster. And yet he could unholster his weapon in a second or two, so I don't know why I should be much less worried about it being on his hip or in his shoulder harness.

Reactionary legislation...
Cuomo’s new gun law does not exempt New York cops, could prevent police from responding to school shootings
A New York lawmaker says that the state’s recently passed gun control law stunningly fails to include any exemptions for law enforcement officers, and technically prohibits police from ever bringing guns on school grounds or possessing extended ammo magazines.
The NY SAFE Act, which was championed and signed into law by Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo, bans all magazines that hold more than seven bullets and pre-1994 high capacity magazines, and prohibits the carrying of guns on school grounds.
But because no loophole for law enforcement was included in the law, every police officer in the state is technically in violation of the statute even though the prohibition is unlikely to be enforced, according to New York Assemblyman Al Graf.
[...]
“There was actually a story that was relayed to me the other day about a New York City police officer who went to a school the other day to pick up his kid, and the security guard told him that if he came to the school with his off-duty gun he would be arrested,” Graf continued.
The prohibition on carrying a gun into a school could even extend to on-duty police officers responding to an emergency such as a shooting.
“I guess they would have to sit there and take their gun belts off before they came in” to the school, Graf said.
Graf says that the exemption was not included in the bill because Cuomo, a rising Democratic star and possible 2016 presidential candidate, rushed it through the legislature via a shortcut known as a “message of necessity.” This allowed for little public scrutiny of the bill, which was easily passed by the legislature and signed into law on Tuesday.
“I got my hands on the bill at 11:30 at night,” Graf said, adding that he only had an hour to go through it before a meeting of the Codes Committee.
“Nobody was really able to look the bill,” before it was passed, according to Graf.
According to Graf, amendments to fix the bill were already in the works by the time it was voted on, but have not yet reached the floor.

Otherwise, knowing the amount of time between guy standing at the counter and guy drawing a bead on the nearest available target, Mom is probably justified in keeping an eye on the guy.

That guy is having some hero fantasies.
I see a pretty big difference between a guy who has a pistol in his coat pocket an a guy who has a military rifle slung on his back.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν
