Re: 2015 Session - What Was Sent to the Governor?
I've heard that back when the NFA was passed into law, we didn't have background checks or the like, so a CLEO sign-off was the closest thing there was to that.gljjt wrote:I don't really understand why this is even a requirement. The CLEO probably doesn't know you so he or she can't vouch for you. Its not his or her place to ascertain "need". What value does this signature provide? Certainly not your background. The ATF can look that up.
It's just never been changed.

(8) "Knuckles" means any instrument that consists of finger rings or guards made of a hard substance and that is designed, made, or adapted for the purpose of inflicting serious bodily injury or death by striking a person with a fist enclosed in the knuckles.gljjt wrote:S473 as written says knuckles are unlawful. I think they left off brass before knuckles. Otherwise we all have to have surgery before September!mr1337 wrote:Here are the ones I've been keeping track of:
Signed by Governor:
SB473 - Makes the lack of NFA registration or designation as a "curio" an element of the crime, rather than a defense to prosecution. You can currently be tried for owning a suppressor, and you must present proof of NFA registration in court as a defense.
Sent to Governor (or soon to be sent to governor):
SB273 - This bill seeks to provide a civil penalty for municipalities that post un-enforceable 30.06 signs. 30.06 signs posted on state or local government property are un-enforceable unless already an otherwise prohibited place.
HB554 - Creates a defense to prosecution and a prohibition on arrest if a CHL inadvertently carries a handgun into the security area of an airport. Police cannot arrest a person unless they advise them of their ability to leave the security area and the CHL fails to do so. (Please still don't do this, you still face fines from the TSA.)
HB905 - Preempts local knife laws in Texas, removing the patchwork of local knife ordinances across the state.
HB910 - Licensed open carry. Texas will have licensed open carry on Jan 1, 2016, being the 46th state to adopt open carry legislation.
SB11 - Campus carry bill
