Thanks Jim, that clears it right up :)seamusTX wrote:You can carry legally long guns any way you like it Texas. Obviously they would be a theft target if left exposed in a parked vehicle, but it wouldn't be illegal.
All "no guns" signs apply to long guns. Going into a place that's posted that way could be prosecuted as criminal trespass. It's not the same as 30.06 for CHL holders.
If you are a student or employee in a school or anywhere else that has a "no weapons" policy, you can do the math.

Rifle/Shotgun carry in car - Plain view or concealed?
A quick Google search doesn't reveal much on this and I've heard a couple of different stories. When transporting a rifle or shotgun in ones car, is it allowed to be concealed or must it be in plain view? If it must be in plain view, that seems exactly opposite of the handgun rules, which makes no sense. Are there differences within a university parking lot(not something I'd plan to do often, but maybe if in route somewhere else)?
