So on Jan 1, every current 30.06 sign becomes non-compliant because they're not using the new language?

They removed the amendment, which makes sense to me, because that amendment is not needed anyway. There are already laws in place that require LEOs to have a reason before asking to see your CHL.

As it is a crime to open carry a sidearm without a CHL, the mere observation of person with a holster handgun is an articulated suspicion for LEO to stop the suspect and check his CHL.

I still don't see where it is eligible at 7:40pm...

After the eligible at 7:40 section is the "Senate requests conference committee" section. SB11 is listed there.

I am walking down the street, pistol in a holster on my hip, I have a CHL and am Open Carrying, and just walking, minding my own business. Can a cop come up and ask for my license? Would I legally have to give it to him? Can I tell him no, that I have a CHL but don't wish to give it to him, that it's included in the 4th amendment? I know that the penal code says that I must produce my license if I am concealed carrying, just wondering how all this would go with OC.
Thanks.

I would ask the officer politely if I am violating any laws, and if not, I would ask can I now leave? that is all I would say, over and over. Video will be good to have. We know it will happen. I think if it happens often, lawsuits will remedy the issue. If courts don't rule in the favor of the person carrying the gun, then there is the answer. Cops can do what you are hypothetically proposing.
