Since we are on the topic of vague "illegal" weapons: What is a bowie knife? I also recently bought a 9.25 total length knife (the Ka-bar 1258). I read the TX penal code and thought I was in the clear, but a friend pointed out the ambiguousness of a "bowie knife."

I don't want a gun.Maybe in the future when I'm a home owner or live in a bad city/place. I just want reliable, effective pepper spray, and the technology of the JPX4 takes care of most of the cons and possible "situation-gone-bad" scenarios I have imagined in my head (as I've mentioned w...

However, there is not a specific size definition in Texas law. If law enforcement wanted to arrest you because they feel it's not for personal p...

I recently bought the JPX4 LE. I also own the Mace gun and a dented keychain pepper spray tube. I thought there were no restrictions on pepper spray ownership in TX, but after stumbling across the penal code, I think I may be in violation. The JPX4 LE carries 4 (0.28fl oz) cartridges. The Mace gun h...
