Re: Psychiatric Conundrum

I can answer based on a slightly similar experience. If you answer "yes" to any of those type medical questions the application will automatically be kicked to a medical board. The board will not make any judgments on their own with out a note from your doctor...even if they agree with you...

Re: Are we actually still in violation of 30.06 at gun shows

i was also at a recent gun show in allen. I knew they would be posted so I unloaded in the car and had my gun inspected at the inspection table. I asked him if I should just carry it out in the open or what. He said, now that we inspected and zipped tied it, you can do what ever you want. I thought ...

What can we do to help "the cause"?

It looks like there is potentially quite a few gun related topics that can come up next session. I work with quite a few gun enthusiast that don't necessarily follow legislative issues too closely. What can I pass along to them that we can be doing now? - Join NRA? - Join TSRA? If people only wanted...

Re: Support for banning handguns continues to fall in America

I'm starting to think that Obama may be the best thing thats happened to gun rights/awareness in a long time. When have seen gun owners more impationed and organized. Gun ownership is at a high.... representatives have sent letters to the president saying they will oppose new gun legislation... pro-...

Re: medical records

IIRC, of all the thousands of people who have posted on this forum, no one has ever come up with an instance of medical history being a factor in their CHL application unless they reported it on their application. There are medical databases, similar to credit rating agencies. I don't know if DPS c...

Re: State Fair

I think the theory is that your gun would probably be detected by the metal detector, at that point you would tell them you are licensed to conceal.... The past 3 years I have been there (not a CHL holder at the time), they wand me, it goes off due to something in my pockets, and they just wave me i...

Re: Dont See a 51% sign?!

SIGN = RED or SIGN = BLUE Red means it's a 51% establishment, meaning no conceal carry. Blue meaning it's NOT a 51% establishment, and unless there's a 30.06 sign, then you're probably ok. What does that mean exactly? Is the paper its written on blue/red? or is the writing blue/red? or does the lic...

Re: 30.06 sign on one door, but not another

I'm still not sure what this has to do with the general chl public unknowingly entering a building through an un-posted entrance. Shawn, the oroginal poster said the following: "I was going into HEB hospital a few weeks ago and I noticed a 30.06 sign on one door and not on another. I wonder wh...

Re: 30.06 sign on one door, but not another

I agree with what you are saying, I just wonder if you would end up with some sort of hassel. you could see the sign from the non-posted door, although some with poorer vision may not have been able to read it.

30.06 sign on one door, but not another

I was going into HEB hospital a few weeks ago and I noticed a 30.06 sign on one door and not on another. I wonder what would happen in that instance if you went in the non-posted door (and got caught concealing). they were about 100 ft from each other.

Re: "If you don't have a gun, they won't shoot you"--NOT

I don't know that the no resistance parts holds up in this case.. I don't know the details but the article says

"the would-be robber struggled with Corbo and his wife Emma Macdonald and then shots were fired."
