Once upon a time, there was no Texas CHL. In those dark times, it is rumored, some people carried a pistol in an unlocked briefcase. It was reasonably accessible in many situations. Like purse carry today, it had some challenges. However, 20 years ago there was no way to get a CHL, so on-body carry carried its own set of risks if an average citizen was not hunting, et cetera. Indeed, the primary advantage of that hypothetical carry method was the ability to quickly spin the combo-wheels, converting the briefcase into a locked container.
Or so the story goes.
