Keeping the vehicle's registration and insurance docs on the visor is VERY bad idea. If your car ever gets broken into, they WILL find and snag this, and they then know far too much about you, where you live, etc. Quite common for the perps to go straight from your just broken into car to your house... which they can assume is unoccupied, as your car is known to be elsewhere. At the very least, hide them well, not in monkeybox or such. I always keep insurance docs in my wallet. If there are multiple operators, have copies in each person's wallet. I don't even like the fact that the VIN is required to be visible from the outside. In Europe this is considered private information. Part of why I prefet to drive cars too old to have this "feature".
While it is correct, that you do not have to tell the officer in Oregon you are armed as long as you are a legal possessor of Conceal Handgun License.
I have been informed, that if you own a car, have the car registered and have a CHL, those two are linked in the Police Officer's in car computer system. Thus, they most likely will know you have that license.
So, this is my long winded way of saying, tell them or not, if you are driving your car, there is a good chance they already know. Personally, I would inform the office politely and with your hands resting clearly on the steering wheel.
But this is mainly personal opinion, and thus each person must make your own choice.
