Rick:
Thanks, now I understand. I have to confess that I've been so busy lately I haven't been able to follow the other thread very well.
I think the folks mean that 46.16(b)(6) exempts CHL's only from the prohibition on carrying handguns, not the other weapons set out in 46.02. According to the express language of 46.15(b)(6), a CHL carrying a handgun would also be able to carry the other weapons listed in 46.02. However, this was not legislative intent and it would be relatively easy for a prosecutor to get the tapes of the hearings and floor debate and prove that the scope of 46.16(b)(6) is limited to handguns.
Regards,
Chas.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but yes, 46.15(b)(6) applies solely to CHL's.
