I worked in Edmonton quite a few times. Broke my left leg in 2008 when I slipped on snow covered ice in -20 degF weather. Never been back. Have not missed it at all.s9601694 wrote:Thanks that is a good idea!

No your gun does not have to be unloaded in the vehicle, however it has to be concealed from plain view.
As far as the residency thing, and I'm not advocating purposefully or knowingly breaking the law, but residency transition is a gray area. I still owned two homes in NM when I moved here and was only leasing short-term, so I don't think it would have been hard to make the case that I hadn't really established residency in TX yet.
I would also consider asking the issuing department in CO, or the Attorney Generals office, if there is an opinion related to validity of an unexpired CO CHL for someone who has moved. Maybe there is a transition period? Maybe CO still recognizes it until it has expired?
edit: Oh, and if you enjoy the weather in Houston, I agree with anygun, that's pretty twisted
Welcome to Texas!
And yeah regarding the weather: I lived in northern Alberta for 5 years.. 9 months of winter with temperatures under -40 as often as they go over +90 here in TX gets pretty old pretty fast.. I'll take the heat anytime!
They have that silly 30/30 rule where if it is >30 degC you can't work for more than 30 minutes without a 15 minute break. 30 degC = 85 degF. I told them it is 85 degF in Houston at 7:00 am and we don't take any breaks after 30 minutes outside. Sissies those Canucks are.
