As to whether or not 18-20yr olds can lawfully carry in Texas, I have fingerprinted a number of them for their LTCs, and one was open carrying sans license when I fingerprinted him. My understanding is that 18-20yr olds carrying without a license must open carry. Does that sound right?

On a related subject, some months ago I fingerprinted an assistant prosecutor for Dallas County, who told me that they had successfully prosecuted several otherwise law-abiding adult citizens for carrying in a non-prescribed manner without a license. I don’t know if it’s true or not…and I honestly don’t care…but he said that permitless carry required the use of either a belt holster or a shoulder holster, and the accused in these cases were not using either when they got popped.

I need to review the law to see what it says.
