Great news on the Texas open carry bill!

Decent but not Great, Windflier. Thank you for the ping.

I knew from Abbott's first comments that he would get a bill allowing open carry for those with PERMITS. A step in the right direction but Texas could do much better if we had the balls to ditch Strauss.

Thanks for the ping

Truly great news

Like I have said and discussed with other buds of mine.. I do not know if I will open carry but love the option.

The way we handles the open carry when we had 800 Minutemen down in ‘05 is we had them wear a furnished card holder that went around their neck. That way when BP or CSO ran across them on the ranches they could identify them as MM not just some pistol packing redneck.

I probably will do this if I ever open carry just to let a LEO know that I am legal open carry.

Not surprising about Joe Strauss abstaining...He’s anti RKBA anyway...yawn...What a putz...

And then Debbie Riddle missed this vote???

I guess she knew they had it the bag anyway...

I’m holster shopping!!! hehehe

Do you (or anyone on your ping list) have a recommendation for a good book on Texas history?
