Thank you! I didn't have time to do a thorough search, and I felt it was something that needed immediate attention.

Democrats have unlimited time and energy to do this kind of stuff and conservatives are constantly playing defense.

We should create many pro-2A laws as possible and make them spend some time trying to defend.

That's an awesome idea, and I like it. And if the legislators would get on board and do it, flood the halls with pro-gun legislation until the Democrats start calling "uncle".

Several of those bills are defacto bans on private transfers, as private individuals cannot use NICS. So every thing would have to go through a dealer.

And to enforce that you have to know where the gun is to begin with. To know that, you have to require gun registration..

HB 196 is my personal favorite. Sponsored by the stellar legislative mind from Irving. Typical Democrat only missing the mask

I say take a page from the Lib playbook. DOX every sponsor of crap bills. Publish their name and address, as well as every phone number.
3 AM serenade for them. Spot lights, megaphones, let our 'feelings' be heard!

Staying in touch with our legislators is going to be paramount this year, to make sure none of these bills see the light of day.

Huge shout out to Todd for starting this thread and keeping it updated so we can be better informed.

Thanks Todd.

And the hits keep coming. This is the fourth or fifth bill relating to NICS checks and private transfers.

It’ll be next month before I can get a handle on what companion bills exist.

Quick roundup.

Subject Alert

The following bills were assigned subjects of interest:

Subject: Weapons
HB 635
Relating to the enforcement of certain federal laws regulating firearms, firearm accessories, and firearm ammunition within the State of Texas.

This is a good one to support. Saw this in the last legislative session, but it died in committee​

HB 629
Relating to the governor's power to control the sale, dispensing, transportation, storage, and use of alcoholic beverages, ammunition, explosives, combustibles, and weapons during a declared state of disaster or state of emergency.

Seems to be a duplicate, but good to support. Restricts governor’s power to place restrictions on alcohol, tobacco, and firearms in an emergency.​

The following bills were assigned subjects of interest:

Subject: Weapons
HB 670
Relating to prohibiting the reckless discharge of a firearm; creating a criminal offense. This is another liberal wet dream that’s been filed every session for the last decade or so. Kill it with fire.

HJR 40
Proposing a constitutional amendment to prohibit the governor from regulating alcoholic beverages, firearms, explosives, or combustibles by order or proclamation. The LGBT community is really pissed off at Abbott. This bill should probably be supported.

I think that many of them, thinking Biden may win the election has emboldened them to try and push the anti-gun legislation again.

Yep. It sure gets their Demdrenalin flowing.

I'd participate in that. I have a couple of bryco saturday night specials that I'm kind of afraid to load. I'd take a cool $400 for them. Then I'd see if anyone wants $30 for the right rifle a few times over.

OMG, and I am looking to move to TX, it appears Cali-Commie-legislation is creeping in...

If it's looking anything like Cali, they will push and push until they get their way.
If it doesn't pass the first time, they will try again as the firearm-ignorant move into the state, and tyranny reigns.

If not right away BABY STEPS, ALWAYS. Jerry Brown wasn't horrible for gun owners, he vetoed some crazy crap, but then as the gen-pop got more ignorant, it got worse, daily...

Don't let this happen!!! You'll be Cali in no time. It's horrible in Cali.
