I shot a LCP this morning, as I am considering something VERY light for a replacement pocket gun. The LCP is 12 oz. loaded. The DB380 has had a rash of recent trigger issues, but I like the feel of the gun. Very Glock-like, but I have not shot it. I noted (with my trifocals) that the sights on the L...

You seem to be changing the "or" in § 30.06(a)(2)(A) to an "and". You can be prosecuted whether or not you refuse to leave. Simply receiving notice that the handgun was forbidden is enough according to the statute. Yes, if the owner of the property or someone with apparent autho...

Wow, USA1, that was a lot more than I asked for. Thanks for the info. As for thanking me for my service, I never felt I did anything worth being thanked for. I felt it was my duty to serve, and I did. Others gave a lot more than I including my cousin, Donald, whose name is on the Wall. Regardless, ...

He'd be more successful trying to prosecute under 30.06 IF he verbally told you to leave and you refused. If you left, then he would have a problem later tying to prosecute for an offense that didn't occur. § 30.06. TRESPASS BY HOLDER OF LICENSE TO CARRY CONCEALED HANDGUN. (a) A license holder comm...

I posted this quote below in another thread. I don't think the law on "printing" is clear at all because of the interpretation of the word "openly" is debatable to me. This is just my opinion, and others may surely disagree. Only you can decide." Sec. 411.171. DEFINITIONS. I...

Coyotes don't howl, but: still. From the "almost never wrong, mostly right, sometimes incorrect, giver of all almost correct information in the universe - Wikipedia" :lol: Communication The calls a coyote makes are high-pitched and variously described as howls, yips, yelps, and barks. The...

You NEED to get some instruction and go shoot my friend, before you take the test. Go to this site, and it explains the scoring. Do yourself a big favor and train & practice first! http://www.krtraining.com/KRTraining/TexasCHL/CHLtest.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;...

Holy cow! Is Ruger on to something here! I stopped at a LGS today after a range visit. The salesman pulled a new Ruger LCP out of a Ruger box with a label that said "LCP-TEX" Also, on the side of the box it was marked, "For sale to Texans only." Inside was a Ruger LCP with a Texa...

I for one, would greatly appreciate a fellow CHL holder pointing out an unintentional outline or print problem. However, I would definitely NOT appreciate someone intentionally trying to cause me problems with LEO's or even a security guard by reporting me as "man with a gun" instead of g...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but "printing" in itself is not against the law. Willful failure to conceal is not the same as printing. Depends on your definition of "printing," and your interpretation of the definition of "concealed Handgun" in CG 411.171 Sec. 411.171. DEFI...

A possible "middle of the road" solution, might be CHLPP. I went ahead and signed with them for $129 a year because they will take care of any CHL incident and help me get my gun back. http://www.chlpp.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :tiphat: '' On their web ...

I agree with what you've said Charles, but unless I am misunderstanding PC 30.05, a CHL is at greater risk if he/she violates the trespass law. According to PC 30.05 penalties are elevated from Class C and B misdemeanors to a Class A, IF I am carrying under my CHL (a deadly weapon) at the time. Plea...

To me, this is the question that is not being addressed in this thread, and the one I'd love to have input on. Why is ignoring other non-gun related signs placed by property owners NOT a criminal offense, but ignoring the 30.06 sign IS a criminal offense? Seems like it has nothing to do with privat...

If you post a sign that says "no tatoos in my restaurant" because you want to keep out bikers and other riff-raff, would a guy with a tatoo on his back completely concealed by his shirt be breaking any law (including trespassing 30.05) if he were to enter this restaurant? Now, obviously, ...
