As TDDude posted, there is no Texas statute that generally prevents the open-carry of a long gun. However, you must be careful how you carry it so as not to violate TPC §42.01(a)(8) [Disorderly Conduct] that makes it an offense to "display a firearm or other deadly weapon in a public place in a manner calculated to alarm; . . ."WolfeJager wrote:Well this clears up a few questions I had. There is another question I have though... Is it legal to carry a long gun openly? ex: Walking to local gun shop to get my AR15 serviced or to a local gas station.
I get mixed information everywhere i ask, there seems to be alot of pro's here so anyone got any idea?
