Re: Applicable Laws for CHL and private investigator

Thanks for the correction. This is a relatively new interpretation and different from what I had been told in the past. Considering the way chapter 1702 is written, I would never have thought they would change to this line of thought.

Re: Applicable Laws for CHL and private investigator

Occupations Code section 1702.169, which says:
Sec. 1702.169. FIREARM RESTRICTIONS. A commissioned security officer other than a person acting as a personal protection officer may not carry a firearm unless:

(1) the security officer is:

(A) engaged in the performance of duties as a security officer; or

(B) traveling to or from the place of assignment;

(2) the security officer wears a distinctive uniform indicating that the individual is a security officer; and

(3) the firearm is in plain view.
A private investigator is a type of commissioned security officer in Texas.
