Each state has different laws, and District Attorneys are NOT in the business of providing legal advice to private citizens. Their job is prosecuting criminals.

Also, the "issuing authority" for CCW licenses/permits may or may not give you an answer, and may or may not be the correct agency/authority to even ask. In my home state and in Florida (where I have a non-resident permit), there is a separate license required to work and carry as armed security. A private citizen's CCW is not sufficient for working as armed security in my state.

Your state laws may be different.

Ask a lawyer. Pay him/her $100 for a half hour appointment and get an honest answer based on YOUR state's laws.
