Open Carry question?

[infoman]

So I'm sure this has been answered already, but thought I'd ask anyway. I know Open carry passed, but when will it actually take effect? I've heard 9-1-15, & I've also heard 1-1-16. Can someone clarify?

1-1-16. It's in the text of the bill.

Police Departments And/Or DPS wanted more time to train officers and such.

You can read the text of HB 910 here: http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/BillLook ... Bill=HB910" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

On page 43-44, section 53 says "Except as otherwise provided by this Act, this Act takes effect January 1, 2016." Other dates in the bill refer to section 31 and certification of votes.
