I'd like to clarify something about the TPC §46.02. The subsections dealing with a person's premises and cars isn't actually an exception; they are elements of the crime itself. This means they have to be present before a violation exists. In this situation, the elements are 1) possession of a handgun, knife, etc.; and 2) other than on your own premises or car.

The effect is exactly as you describe, but being an element of a crime, rather than an exception, is significant.

Chas.
