Re: Carry in the car question

Thanks everyone.

I am a CHL holder so no problems with that side of things.

Also, I prefer to carry a 1911, but with the weather in Houston the way it is, it's near impossible to carry that kind of weapon without a jacket for cover. I'm in a suit all day for work so a S&W Airweight 340 PD is my choice when in business attire.

When I'm out and can have a shirt untucked, I'm carrying the heavier caliber.

thanks again,

twomarks

Carry in the car question

I've read the statute and my question stems from how "plain view" is defined. I'd rather not keep my revolver in my pocket holster as I don't want to have to dig it out of my pocket if the need arrises. Can I keep it in a holster and place it in between the driver's seat and console close to my hip?

If I were to be stopped for a traffic violation, it would be difficult for an officer to see it without leaning his head into the car - which I doubt happens.

Thanks in advance,

twomarks
