And she is going to sign it into law.  While not perfect, got to already have permit to carry to open carry, it will prevent those who are concealed and wind up showing from breaking the law.

Law will go into effect Nov 1.

It's a small step in the right direction.
We didn't lose our 2A rights in one fell swoop, unfortunately we can't get them back that way either

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

It's a shame you need a bill passed to exercise a Constitutional right but, at least it's a step in the right direction.

I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

Even though I tend toward concealment, I sold all my really concealable guns quite awhile ago & all I have left is a Glock 22, not exactly the best for concealed carry.
I conceal it as best I can, really easy in winter but 80 degrees and over? not so much.
So I'm glad I do not get in trouble for people seeing it.
A case in Cali I read about on calguns really reinforced this, even though accidental printing is OK if you have a Cali ccw, it didn't prevent people from freaking out & calling the PD, who also freaked out and arrested the guy.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

Better than what Texas has....if our Texas State Rifle Association wasn't run by the CHL-instructor mafia, we'd have constitutional carry by now....

In related news, I just got perma-banned from the TexasCHL Forum for questioning the wisdom of the CHL-instructor mafia....

Apparently, Mr. Cotton forgot two things about his forum....

1.  One can stay logged in even when one is away from his computer.

2.  I have a life that involves more than bickering with him....esp. if he won't address the questions posed to him.
