If I followed this correctly, this bill would prevent funding the enforcment of Federal Firearms Laws by Texas Agencies. Not ideal but better than not having something like this.

looks good to me

Hmm... Like the idea. Like the statement it makes. Understand the "within this state" disclaimers.

But what happens when I travel out of state? Even if that state has a similar law and/or laws to Texas? Am I now governed by Federal law becasuse I'm on an airplane? Our because I crossed state borders?

So let's say I fly from Houston to Albuquerque. NM. They honor my CHL. I cross directlty from Texas "air space" to New Mexico "air space."

This doesn't address what is being done at the Fed Level or other states. It seems like in sentiment anyway, it's doing like California did with marijuana laws. The feds have still conducted raids in California but the state does not pursue. Sounds like we would have something similar in Texas. You would still be at odds with federal law and playing the odds of the feds coming after you. That's still not a good situation. It means you are still a "criminal", which isn't good.

I've read a few other articles on this. One points out that one requirment for this to be legal would be that the gun be manufactured in Texas and never leaves the state.
