I see "on the person’s own premises or premises under the person’s control" in 46.02 but I don't see anything about permission.

I'd love to be proven wrong. It would be great to have a BBQ in a friend's backyard with everyone carrying openly because we have permission from the home owner.

Under what law? (Assuming you're not the business owner/manager.)

Correct.

No such luck.

But it would make sense, right? A landowner can make it illegal for someone (even someone with a CHL) to carry on the property by revoking consent and giving notice. So logic and fairness says a landowner should be able to make it legal for someone (even someone without a CHL) to carry on the property by granting consent and giving notice. The thing is, the law doesn't have to be logical or fair.

If you don't have a CHL, the landowner's permission is irrelevant.
