Come on...When you are flying you don't unholster your gun and put it in your bag....You need to have it in a locked case IN YOUR LUGGAGE WHICH HAS TO BE CHECKED. You declare your locked handgun with the airline attendant and then you will be directed to TSA.
A little common sense is called for here. You don't need to rack your weapon in the airport's rest room. Let's use some common sense when we carry.
So when does your gun magically unload itself and put itself in a locked case...at home? So you forgo your right to protect yourself to and from the airport when you're flying?

Personally, unload mine in the car in the parking lot, but I always park close to the terminal. I understand people who prefer to disarm at the last possible moment before checking their gun in.

Actually it is legally different. Penal Code Ch 46.15(3) would appear to cover gun shows. It eliminates applicability of 46.02 which prohibits carrying of weapons.
Gun show a "sporting activity" akin to hunting or fishing? What type of handgun is commonly used in that sporting activity.../ ;-) . And people think I'm crazy for thinking I can give someone "control" of my premises while I'm at home...
