Just checked into my hotel and noticed a blue sign saying weapons on these premises without a permit is subject to jail. Is my pa permit ok for that purpose?

if you have a carry licence, that sign doesn't apply to you. Laugh at it and walk in.

:iagree:

In Texas, other than Courts, inside school buildings, and Federal property and other places listed which don't need signs

there's only 2 signs where you can't carry past

30.06 sign and 51% sign

===========================


other places (SOME don't need signs to be off-limits)
http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/d ... /PE.46.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Sec. 46.03. PLACES WEAPONS PROHIBITED
Sec. 46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE HOLDER.

be sure to read ALL so you see >>> (i) Subsections (b)(4), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (c) do not apply if the actor was not given effective notice under Section 30.06.

Thanks for the quick reassurance. I did walk right by knowing it was not a 30.06 and knowing courtyard by Marriott does not get 51% of money from alcoholic beverages.

I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that your hotel room is legally the same as your home/apartment. So you would be fine even without a CHL since the hotel can't legally prohibit you from possessing firearms in your temporary domicile.

Yes I must say. In Ohio the signs carry the weight of law, it can be written on toilet paper with a crayons and it is a criminal charge to carry past it.

30.06 and 51% signs carry the weight of law here in Texas, but the blue sign mans they make less than 51% of their income from the sale of alcohol for on premise consumption. Places with the blue sign are OK to carry past. Here is a good reference topic http://texaschlforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=34571" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The blue sign says "the unlicensed", we have licenses so the sign does not apply to us.
