Nice one haha.

And Max, this issue should have been hammered home in your CHL class, really the only things that can bar a CHL holder from carrying are:
Legally posted 30.06 sign
51% establishments
Federal buildings (Court Houses, Post Offices, etc.)
Schools

That's about it.

And as they say, concealed means concealed.
Umm, there is a LOT more than that. :thumbs2:

Is that local code referenced Carrollton specific code or is that a state code related to the limits of local codes state wide that can be placed on firearms/CHL holders?
It is the Texas Local Government Code; http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/D ... m/GV.1.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


Applies statewide

I have a CHL and my wife and I like to walk through these woods on the trails but I have seen that a number of vagrants live in these areas especially during the summer time. I've seen them coming out of the woods on to the roadways surrounding the area and last year one of their shanty campfires got away from them and burned up several acres.

I'm always a little wary we might be picked out as robbery victims from these people while making our hikes.

Several things come to mind

1. "no gun" signs do not apply to CHL holders unless it meets the requirements stipulated in penal code 30.06
2. even if it was a 30.06 sign, it would not be applicable as 30.06 does not apply to locations owned or leased by a government entity.
3. State law prevents municipalities from having firearm laws more restrictive than state law

The conclusion is that the sign does not apply to you as a CHL holder.
