Sec. 21-16. Carrying loaded rifle or shotgun.
It shall be unlawful for any person, other than duly authorized peace officers, to carry a loaded rifle or shotgun on any public street within the city or in a motor vehicle while the same is being operated on any public street within the city.
(Code 1959, § 26-28)
Cross references: Regulation of firearms and weapons, § 21-151 et seq.
Is this common?
It's neither common nor enforceable. It's preempted by State law. San Antonio has a lot like Jersey City, NJ -- it thinks it's not subject to state law.
