Re: CC Loaded vs CC Unloaded

If a concealed and unloaded gun is governed by the Texas CHL rules exactly the same as a loaded gun, then that's important to know. Under that doctrine, a gun is a gun weather it is loaded or not loaded.
You are correct.
If Texas law considers an unloaded and concealed handgun as outside the CHL rules, then I might consider removing the ammunition from the gun in "some" places. For example, I'd rather not leave the gun locked in the car while in church, but keep it with me.
Why would you want to? Carrying a loaded handgun into a place of worship is not prohibited, UNLESS you were notified via written, verbal communication or sign posting as required by PC 30.06.

No. I can find no reference in the DPS booklet "Texas Concealed handgun Laws and selected Statutes" making a distinction, other than PC 46.13, "Making A Firarm Accessible to A Child".
