I think Keith B has hit it right on the nose. The shoulder holster, to me is the best method of carrying while in a vehicle on long drives. If desired and with the proper shoulder holster, one can also remove the shoulder holster without touching the weapon and place this ensemble within a covered position inside of your vehicle. Many methods out there nowadays,it isn't like it was when CHL was first passed in Texas. One doesn't have to carry on the hip and those of us who have extra girth, have more options as well. Carry always and enjoy learning the methods available. Soon you too will have a drawer full of holsters, LOL.Keith B wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 9:13 amThis is incorrect. If openly carrying, it must be in a belt or shoulder holster. Otherwise you must conceal it, even in a vehicle.WildRose wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 3:59 amEasily solved. Present your LTC to the officer with your DL as soon as he/she walks up and tell them you are armed and where the gun is.Mel wrote: ↑Sun Apr 07, 2019 9:44 pm Let's play "Devil's Advocate". What if you have the piece on a magnet below the dash, you are stopped by LEO and asked to get out of the vehicle. Are you going to move the weapon to your holster while the officer is watching? Are you going to leave it where it will be in plain sight once you get out?
Try to think of all possible scenarios.
As long as you are in the vehicle with the gun it does not have to be concealed, we are an open carry state. You do need to think however about having a lockbox of some sort securely affixed to the vehicle if you're going to be forced to leave the vehicle and the gun therein so you can go into posted locations such as the PO.
