Depends on what you carry.Take Down Sicko wrote: Sat Aug 18, 2018 2:08 pm Weather concealed or open carried, the only safe way to carry is in a holster to protect the trigger from a negligent discharge.

The "rules" are don't violate Texas PC 46.02 Unlawful Carrying of Weapons, when concealing and carrying weapons. Mainly that means have a license or other 46.15 exception while carrying.bigtek wrote: Sat Aug 18, 2018 2:56 pmwww.dps.texas.gov/InternetForms/Forms/LTC-16.pdfTEXSON wrote: Sat Aug 18, 2018 11:23 am SINCE LTC BECAME THE "NEW" LAW - AND SPECIFICALLY STATES HOW ( HOLSTERED ) TO CARRY - WHERE ARE THE CONCEALED CARRY "RULES" ?

HTH
If it can be seen it has to be in a belt or shoulder holster. If it can't be seen there are no rules.TEXSON wrote: Sat Aug 18, 2018 11:23 am SINCE LTC BECAME THE "NEW" LAW - AND SPECIFICALLY STATES HOW ( HOLSTERED ) TO CARRY - WHERE ARE THE CONCEALED CARRY "RULES" ?
