As I understand it, it is generally OK to answer one's door with a openly-carried or held weapon as long as unwarranted threats aren't made.
What if the salesmen saw a legally-displayed weapon and exagerated a bit as far as threats?

Re: Friendswood: Man charged after "pulling gun" on salesmen
I know that a person has rights to display weapons on their own property, but what are the limits?
Or perhaps it didn't happen on the man's property.

That scam may need to be updated, as fewer buy printed magazines these days.seamusTX wrote:Actually, the magazine sales scam is decades old. These people typically claim to be college students trying to work their way through school. Usually the victims never see a magazine. They don't steal enough from any one victim to warrant felony charges, and if the consumer complains enough they can actually issue a subscription.
