Yes, but you need to be prepared to show your license and your weapon must be totally concealed.



We have an abundance of security (police) at the Fair.

If it legitimately is Private Property, and they have a 30.06, that's fine. But if it's Government Property, and not a 51% location, then they are incorrect, and it is legal.

Well that's obviously not a 51% sign then, as "No Concealed Handguns" is not in the verbiage of an official 51% sign.

IIRC, it reads "The licensed or unlicensed possession of......" etc...

Someone who goes there, get pictures, and check their TABC License if you have a chance, let us know the 'official' answer!
