Perhaps, but had a TABC officer tell me years ago that "technically" no firearms (including long guns) were allowed where alcohol was sold or consumed unless you were the owner, operator, authorized employee, guard, etc. This was after the CHL laws were passed and of course did not exclude CHL holders as outlined in CHL laws. I remember it because he said it included all the property, even the parking lot. He made a point of saying that a couple of guys filling up their truck at a conveinence store on the way to dove hunting with shotguns in the trunk were "technically" in violation of TABC laws. It sounded kind of screwy to me at the time, but I didn't question him about it. He did go on to say that he had never heard of anyone actually being prosecuted under that TABC law, but that it gave LEOs some leverage if a person was acting a total fool and causing trouble - and happened to have a long gun on any property where alcohol was sold or consumed. I was always under the impression that long guns were legal just about anywhere in Texas unless, as one person mentioned, you displayed it in such a way as to cause alarm, etc. Its a shame that some sheeple today would be alarmed the mere sight of a rifle, and consider it time to panic and piss themselves. I am dating myself here, but when I was in high school, it was not uncommon to see a teenager's pickup truck with a shotgun or deer rifle in the rack at the back window, especially during season. Such a thing now probably anywhere near a school would get SWAT called.
