While I already carry in the car due to the castle doctrine, and primarily plan to stick with that for the most part, as a geology grad student who has to travel to places in the middle of no where to collect samples it is nice to add the option to legally carry as well. I was wondering if tx law shield was a worthwhile investment?
Thanks,

Definitely a worthwhile investment, I've got [Pre-paid legal service] and for 14 bucks and some change, I've got a great attorney, with multi-state protection and a expert witness and bail bond. God forbid that I ever actually have to use it, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
