Question about traveling with guns in TX

[rotor]

You cannot give permission to carry. You can give control of premises. With control of premises, Clinique Girl can decide if she wants to carry, or lock doors and watch tictok videos.

Person in control of premises can legally open carry on premises. End.

No one has ever said otherwise.

If you show up at my place, which is way back in the woods, and you don't have a gun, I'll probably look at you funny. I will have one on my belt, and three or more in close reach. If I don't think you are qualified to carry a gun, you will be asked to leave. If you don't comply, bad things will happen. If I know you, and deem you capable, wearing or carrying a gun is a plus. Any number of bad critters could show up at any second, including copperheads, wild hogs, cottonmouths, and cougars. And if a crazed druggie comes shopping, I want to know that you've got my back.

Now granted, country culture/rules are different than city culture/rules. But I've never heard of anybody in my neck of the woods getting the law called on them for carrying a gun on someone else's property. Unless they were poaching.

I really don't understand why you people would argue so much about the legality of carrying a gun on someone else's property. They will either endorse it, or they won't. If they won't, they will either handle it or call LEO. It's pretty simple. And last I checked, Texas is still a part of a free country, unlike some of the other parts of the USA.

She was actually dreaming!

ammo and gun in separate containers? who gave you that advice?

 

[txinvestigator]

Thank you for finally ending this. The management can give control to anyone that he/she chooses and if it is the "Clinique girl" she can carry minus an LTC (as you noted). Your first sentence seems illogical. In the practical sense is it likely, no. If it is not illegal then I assume it is legal.

Glad you finally understand.

Probably a Californian, because that is how they are commanded to do it there.

The gun container must be locked. I don’t remember if I had to lock the ammo while I was visiting.

 

[TX oddball]

and I've been advised to keep it unloaded and the ammo separate (aka gun in glovebox and ammo in back or something). That's all covered.

Must of been a Calif. Commie that told you that bit of mis-information. An unloaded gun, especially if the ammo is hidden somewhere else, is as useful as a screen door on a submarine.

When my son was 18 yo (shooter since he was 8 yo), I gave him a truck gun (.38 revolver) since he was not of legal age yet to CC, but was old enough to have a gun in the car. Loaded and hidden.

 

[tonelar]

Even there, that advice will land someone in legal trouble, since the glovebox does not count as a locked container in Cali.

 

[Axxe55]

Or better yet, follow what California really wants, don't have any guns in the first place!

No guns.
No ammo.
No problems!

 

[majormadmax]

Who really gives a shit what the laws are in California?!?

They can go to CalGuns.net if they have any questions about those.

This is Texas Gun Talk!

Wasn't that the TX law about 20 yrs ago

No. That is FOPA for interstate travel

 

[ZX9RCAM]

I actually thought I remembered that from the 80s, guess I remember wrong.

ETA: That's not really surprising, lol....

Yes, Texas did have the inaccessable (locked) container/trunk/unloaded/etc. Guys were getting stopped leaving car to go to range. Really messed up laws that finally got straight. That's the problem with 2 yr Leg. - messed up stuff takes long time to get 'fixed'. Gotta dot the Is and cross the Ts before you sign.

When was this?

All the years I have lived here Texas NEVER differentiated between loaded and loaded handguns (until the child access law). The standard was always "on or about your person".
