Good advice. I was relating what I was taught, twice, by two retired LEOS with about 25 years experience each. Your suggestion to describe yourself to the dispatcher is excellent.
I was talking about when the incident is over and the threat is negated. Obviously, if there is still a threat, you don't disarm. "Fire until the threat is negated."
Taking cover might cast suspicion as "hiding".
Holding your gun and laying it down when the LEOs arrive does two things, it shows them you with a gun in your hand and it shows you moving, neither of which is good. I'd rather present them with a completely still subject (arms outstretched) who immediately announces he/she has a CWP and is armed. Let the officers handle the gun in the way they've been trained.
