Is open Carry of pistols legal under the Tx Constitution?

The legislature can make laws about it. And have, since Reconstruction.

Dewhurst needs to go, so open carry can have a chance.

I love concealed carry, but I'm a little guy, less than 120 lbs, and to carry anything larger than a Jennings .22 is very uncomfortable for me, especially in summer.

I want to be able to open carry so that I CAN carry comfortably and legally. I like large hunks of steel in the 1911 format. I can't carry those concealed. Not and be able to walk, anyway....

No doubt Dewhurst has to go, and I have a similar problem with concealment, I just thought there was some clause in the TX constitution that prohibited open carry of pistols, but not long arms.

Didn’t stop some ol gal from waving around a 44 mag hogleg at me LOL
(I did nothing wrong) Feisty ol gal LOL
Sheriff sorted it out.

I find the CZ 82 relatively comfortable and concealable even on hot summer days.
