Prior to Texas CHL, the local sheriff dept was called whenever a visitor approached the vehicle checkpoint and a weapon [or drugs] was found. I left employment before CHL was established in Texas but due to trustees throughout the grounds, BOQ, housing and otherwise, I can't see where TDCJ would allow firearms of any kind on state property [with few exceptions like tower and field employees]. It was common knowlege that our wardens and capt/majors kept weapons in their housing, but it was still illegal.
