Opening carrying in Austin will be something I do on 1 January just because.

That will be when Campus Carry passes.

Anyone else notice that 30.06 only has to be posted conspicuously while 30.07 signs have to be posted at each entrance???
After thinking about it, I guess this really isn't that big of a deal after all.

Charles,
I'll keep this brief. Thanks for all your hard work, seen and unseen. Thanks for keeping us in the loop when you were able to and for putting up with us when you couldn't.
Much obliged, sir.

Some members here say they will hardly ever open carry and it really is up to them come Jan. 1st 2016. I myself will open carry on my days off. I open carried as a Texas commissioned security officer for the past 20 yrs . I would like to think that I was very careful about constantly being aware of my surroundings . I think if you dress properly most of the public will think you're law enforcement not through any fault of our own.

Cheers to open carry.

As many have already stated, a big "Thank You" to Charles, Alice and everyone else both in the spotlight and behind the scenes that worked long and hard to get us to this moment. A Great Day for Texas!

One reason I thought the "badge" requirement was a really bad idea.

Note: How one chooses to dress is completely up to them. Just when I go out with a gun I myself will try to represent CHL holders in a good light .
