Title: What are the emission laws in Texas?
Post by: Wedge on March 24, 2005, 04:44:34 PM

I am going to be moving to Austin, TX in 7 weeks and was wondering what the emission laws are?

On another note should I buy my Glock 19 up here in NY or wait until I move down to TX?  What are the residency laws there?  I probably need a state driver's license don't I...I would like to get the Glock up here where I have lots of land at my disposal to play with it before I have to pay to use a range...

Austin is NOT one of several counties compelled to do emissions testing. What you seek is here:

You're in luck.

Driver's license information:

Here's the link to the Texas CHL page with regs and residency requirements, too.

Welcome to Texas. You'll like it here, especially if you get outside Austin

Wow, TX has emission testing.  I did not know that.

Serious though, get the CHL.  A great benifit of it is when you go and buy a new gun.

I plan on getting the CHL right away.  I already have one up here in NY.
