Pointing a firearm at a person, vehicle, or building without justification is deadly conduct.

High ready would be pointed at someone right? I think this is illegal unless threatened.seamusTX wrote:You need to be able to see who is at the door before you open it. Cameras are cheap.
You can legally have an AR-15 at high ready and a .45 on each hip, but you don't want the Avon lady to faint on your doorstep, and you don't want to open the door to a thug.
