30.06, 30.07, or 30.05. Naturally I walked past the 46.03 sign with my concealed handgun. A car dealership obviously is not a prohibited location. Posting it at the dealership does not stop anyone from legally carrying open or concealed. So, what's their reason?
Ignorance probably. They probably wanted a 30.05 but don’t know the difference.

Re: OK what is a 46.03 sign?

Unfortunately this debate and hundreds more are raging across many forums, discussion groups and more across the state. I read somewhere that due to the poorly written law it most likely have to be straitened out and redefined in a court room. And probably with some poor fella who decided to carry in a posted location. The advice I’m giving to students is to err on the side of caution.

That and the contention that a Beretta silhouette with a circle and a slash constitutes effective notice under 30.05. Lawyers being lawyers, especially since they have prepaid legal services offerings and it is in their interest to dissuade you from being the proverbial "test case".
What contention, it’s pretty black and white for non LTC.. Gun buster signs are effective notice under C carry.
What section of TXPC 30.05 supports that contention?
There is no contention.... I.E No argument.... 30.05 under criminal trespass. Effective notice (and I don't have the new text under HB 1927). 30.05 or gun buster sign is legal when not carrying under the authority of LTC... 30.06 / 07 are the actual only signs that must meet a legal definition under LTC, whereas 51% and 46.03 apply to both... 30.05 and gun buster apply to C carry only... read the US law shield publication.. Their attorneys and multiple others out there who are much smarter than me agree that gun buster signs are effective and legal notice for C Carry.

Giving it a read could keep folks out of trouble they could easily get into with all the law changes grouped under the title of "constitutional carry." There are a bunch of them.

An important note is that obtaining and maintaining an LTC is still very worthwhile and carries significant privileges and benefits not available to those without an LTC. Example: if you forget a handgun in your carryon bag at the airport security checkpoint, an LTC holder gets the opportunity for a "do over" and can leave and secure his gun somewhere before going through again. A non-LTC holder goes right into cuffs for a felony.
:iagree:
I’ve had some VERY frank conversations with about 1/2 dozen or more young gentleman of African decent. We talked about the different perceptions of police towards those with LTC and those that don’t have a LTC, especially related to skin color. I see a lot of head nods, light bulbs going on, etc. I’ve had several thank you’s and possible new students.

(Schools, race tracks, polling places, etc.) I believe they might put them up to inform the unlicensed not to carry there.
Correct, will be interesting to see how many will get caught carrying in restricted places after 9/1

Re: OK what is a 46.03 sign?

46.03 is for prohibited places such as schools, racetrack, airports. Where is this taken. Lots of new businesses will probably mistakenly post 46.03 instead of 30.05.

Does this affect your LTC. Good question. Legally no if incorrectly posted, but (there is always a but). By the spirit of the law they don’t want you carrying a firearm in their location. But if you are concealed and LTC then it’s not really effective notice. An owner, employee or agent must give you written or oral notice to leave. Unless of course it’s a prohibited location then it’s a NO GO Location.
