An excellent website that is related to Texas CHL Forum (Charles Cotton influence) is Texas Firearms Coalition. Go there and find his podcasts. I've listened while driving, in my office, and even working in the yard. If you start with number 1, they all had a section on the history of concealed carry laws in Texas. When you hear where we started and how we got where we are today, it will all made more sense. A 4 hour LTC class a year ago won't do it. A good example is the reason why we have the 30.06 sign. This is a good thing although many, who do nit understand the background, may disagree.
+1 on the Texas.3006 com app. I use it all the time. The can set notices to alert you when near 3006, 3007, and 51 locations. I especially like the 51 notice. I've carried twice inside a 51% location where I did not see the sign. This is a felony. I may have had cause for a defense due to the poor posting of the signs (beat the rap but not the ride?)

Re: New to this forum!
Welcome to Texas. I always have a pistol in my truck. I drive an F-150 and bought a Console Vault which installs inside the console and very secure. Highly recommend this product but you have to check if they make one for your vehicle. I am in industrial sales and generally don't carry when I'm on sales calls. Very of my accounts are posted 30.06 but many have some type of "no firearms" signs. While I would not be violating the law by carrying on their property, if I was discovered, I would be banned from the account. Looking forward to retirement though and will always carry.
