The bill sure doesn't seem to simply allow Taser if CHL, since:
(k) The provisions of Section 46.02 prohibiting the
carrying of a Taser or other stun gun do not apply to an individual
who carries a Taser or other stun gun and a valid license to carry a
Taser or other stun gun
issued by the Department of Public Safety
under Subchapter H-1, Chapter 411, Government Code.
SECTION 7. Chapter 411, Government Code, is amended by
adding Subchapter H-1 to read as follows:
SUBCHAPTER H-1. LICENSE TO CARRY A TASER OR OTHER STUN GUN
Sec. 411.220. DEFINITIONS. In this subchapter, "Taser" and
"stun gun" have the meanings assigned by Section 46.01, Penal Code.
Sec. 411.221. LICENSE TO CARRY A CONCEALED TASER OR OTHER
STUN GUN. The department by rule shall establish a procedure for a
person to obtain a license to carry a Taser or other stun gun.
Looks like more than just an endorsement to the CHL.

And most interestingly:
(17) "Stun gun" means a device designed to propel
darts or other projectiles attached to wires that, on contact, will
deliver an electrical pulse capable of incapacitating a person.
(18) "Taser" means a stun gun manufactured by the
Taser company.
Guess my wife's OK since I got her an offbrand non-wired version... ;-) Think they're just after Taser?

HB 1535 - Generally prohibiting the carrying of a Taser...

I know this isn't CHL directly but I noticed it includes re-wording 30.06 signs to include Tasers and other stun guns.

Is this a sly approach to re-working 30.06 verbage that might even affect CHLs? :roll:
