I think the confusion comes from 46.13. That says if a child gets their hands on a loaded gun that wasn't locked up, the person who didn't lock it up committed an offense. However, the child isn't breaking the law in that case, only the criminally negligent person who left a loaded gun laying around.
I'm simplifying here. You can read the actual law at http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/D ... /PE.46.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: What is age limit for carrying in your car?
Yes. If you're over 70, or an AARP member of any age, you can't carry a gun in your car.Hamourkiller wrote:Is there an age limit on carrying a handgun in your car?
