Nope, not real new rule. Addition is maybe a couple of years old now IIRC.getusumtx wrote:I had some issues with this subject as well. My CHL instructor said carrying in a church/amusement part is illegal. After reading the whole section, it turns out you can.Is rule new? I guess this goes to show you have to read that book cover to cover twice to figure some things out..

Re: Church Carry
Read the statute again, but continue reading and make sure to read section (i). basically, instead of totally rewriting the statute, they took a shortcut and just added that verbiage to update the old restriction.milkcartonkid wrote:I am not sure why i am having such a hard time getting my head around this topic: It is clearly stated that it is a crime to carry a weapon to church with your CHL. Yet it is apparently done. Alot. So even though its printed as a No-No, unless there is a 30.06 its not prohibited?
apologies for my newbness but i just dont get it. Would someone please "black and white" this for me? Thanks in advance.

Re: Church Carry
Yes, unless you have been given verbal or written notification in the form of 30.06 not to.foodawg wrote:Wow! I think there are a lot of misconceptions about the "church" phrase.
I'm fairly sure in my class, the instructor said you could not carry in church. I check with a couple of guys that I took the class with and they are under that impression as well.
Thanks for you clarification on this.
Just to verify I understand it correctly, you can carry in church as long as a 30.06 isn't posted. Correct?
