Also, something to consider in terms of the car gun. You should have something low maintenance, highly rust resistant and preferably polymer framed if you live someplace like Harris County where they’re going to take you for a ride despite the law. Over and above the fact that a car’s environment isn’t great for a firearm, if you get taken for a ride, the police will confiscate your weapon, test fire it at least two or three times, and then “store” it in a box, uncleaned, for as long as it takes to “resolve” your case. In the case of a vindictive PD or DA, they may even “lose” your gun - so don’t use something with significant emotional or collector value.

Finally, places like Houston/Harris County just don’t seem to learn. They’re eventually going to slip up, the case is going to make it to trial, they’re going to lose and be on the losing end of a civil rights violation suit again.

Thanks for great advice. I live north of Dallas but based on this exchange, I’m headed for the next gun show to procure a throwaway BFCS (Big Friggin Criminal Shooter). Right now, my car is protected with a nickel plated SW revolver, .357 magnum. I agree it’s probably too good to sit in a car and deteriorate.

BTW, did you see Renteria is an illegal alien? Here’s the Kaufman story:

http://www.kaufmanherald.com/articles/2008/03/07/news/news02.txt

The operative paragraph says, “...Renteria told an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent via a phone interview that he is in the United States illegally, said Dallas ICE agent Roy Hernandez. “We confirmed he’s here illegally,” Hernandez said. Once Kaufman County is done with the charges against Renteria, he will be released to ICE who will begin deportation, Hernandez said....”
