If you're "carrying a concealed handgun and a valid license" then 46.02 does not apply. However, if you're not carrying your license, 46.02 does apply. Whereas MPA is part of 46.02, it should apply when you're not carrying your license.bluefalcon7829 wrote:First of all I'm in the army stationed in FT Bliss,TX. I am currently on leave in Victoria, TX about 9 hours away. I just found out my liscense had been mailed to me on Monday. The problem is I'm on the east side of Texas and my liscense is being sent to the west side. Am I allowed to carry under the MPA even though I am liscensed to carry?
It's true there's still a requirement to display the CHL under certain circumstances, but failure to do so isn't UCW.
