1. Will OCT support any or all licensed open-carry bills during the 2015 Texas Legislative Session?
2. Will OCT oppose any or all licensed open-carry billls?
3. Will OCT support only HB195 - unlicensed open-carry?
It's time for OCT leadership to stop sending mixed signals and let gun owners know their position on these issues.
Chas.
Charles,
I have been traveling over the past few weeks, so this may have already been covered, but could you provide the NRA and/or TSRA stance on the three items above as well. It would be great to know where every stands.

It's logical to assume that when Charles says "support" or "oppose" on that thread, that pretty much represents the NRA/TSRA thinking.

Then why have none of the bills been posted to the Texas section of "state legislation" on the NRA-ILA? As much as I do care about Charles opinion, and his expertise, I want to know what bill the NRA will be pushing.
If the answer is that tactically it would make no sense for the NRA to reveal their position yet, than how in the world would it make sense for OCT to reveal their position?
