Question - New to Texas

Ok, I moved to Texas from Ohio in October. Before coming here I found that Texas and Ohio does not recognize each others license, but that Texas accepts Pennsylvania Licenses. I was able to get a non-resident PA license before coming down here. So, with that will I still need to attend a CHL class or can I apply for a Texas CHL using the PA license?

You need to take the class to get a Texas CHL. During your long wait, you can carry using an out of state CHL if Texas honors that state, like Pennsylvania. http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/administra ... rocity.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Apply for your Texas CHL and just carry your rifle until your license arrives. ;-)

Please tell me that sign is real. Please, Please, Please!

I'm headed that way in May on the way to the annual NRA Convention in Phoenix. I would love dearly to have my picture taken standing next to that sign with a bulge under my shirt at 3 o:clock, and a rifle slung over my shoulder.

If it's not real, it ought to be.

The Welcome to Texas sign is real. The text at the bottom was edited in.
