I am not an instructor, however I know that the CHL-100 form is valid for two years. Once you submit an application to the state, the application is valid for one year (you have one year to submit all the required paperwork.

thetexan... you're right that a hospital is not automatically off limits and that it must be posted. However, if it IS posted with the appropriate 30.06/07 sign, it is a Class A misdemeanor.

oorah - I think you missed something. Hospitals are listed under (b)(4), and the current section (g) (effective 8-1-2016) states: Text of subsection effective on August 1, 2016 (g) An offense under Subsection (a), (a-1), (a-2), (a-3), (b), (c), (d), or (e) is a Class A misdemeanor, unless the offens...

As others have already noted, they way you decide to carry is a personal choice, so in the end, it's your decision. For me, I always have a round chambered, and if I happen to have my 1911, it's cocked and locked. I'll just leave this as more "food for thought" in making your final decisio...

I also have had difficulty determining this, but I believe (IANAL) that the separate building "doctor's office" would not be considered a hospital under 46.035. Of course, you very well might have to end up arguing that in court and convincing those 12 people in the box of that (not worth ...

I don't know if they would be receptive to it, but there is a Denny's at I-10 and Wilcrest (however they are 30.07 posted so maybe we don't want that!).

Interested, but of course will depend on the details.

Seems to me it applies only to a misdemeanor under that section of the transportation code and would not have any applicability to weapons violations under the Penal Code.

Serious question: Penal code states it is unlawful to carry on the premises where a sporting event takes place, and premises is defined as a building or part of a building. Is an open air stadium that is fenced in - a building or part of a building? Actually the Penal Code says: on the physical pre...

And since the brain is "cross-wired", only left-handed people are in their right mind.

I know this is a Texas forum, but just for completeness, it also depends on state law (if you travel, that's important). For instance, Ohio requires you to show your license whether you are a passenger or driver. If a licensee is the driver or an occupant of a motor vehicle that is stopped as the re...

While it may not be interpreted as a belt holster by some police departments, here is what Houston PD says about "Belt Holster" in the Open Carry page http://www.houstontx.gov/police/open_carry/index.htm item #26. What is a “belt holster” and what kind of holster would be a violation? The ...

That's quite some travel! Texas to Alaska and then Tennessee! (You probably mean AR - Arkansas).

Just had to poke the bear! Have a great day.

It's not in north Houston area, but on the Katy Freeway around Kirkwood there's an outfit called CHL Now that runs classes 7 days a week.

Slightly off topic but there's a business I've been trying to lookup and it doesn't have anything listed under gun sign. Anybody know why that would be? The code listed in subordinates is GF,O. According to the TABC web site, WINERY FESTIVAL PERMIT (GF) Permit authorizes holders of a Winery Festiva...
