>> I live on the family farm and carry as I see fit.
On property you own (or control), it is not unlawful to carry, open or concealed.

(see 46.02)
I also take it further than the farm and never get pulled over. Maybe its because they know me and trust is involved. But I do carry concealed in local stores while driving the farm truck, take a ranch dog with me sometimes as long as its not the Brookshire’s/Grocery. Like I said, I am extremely rural.
