If not, then carrying the handgun in an envelope was also illegal, unless he has a CHL.

True ... but, better than letting him continue. Should have been unloaded and cased. Correct?

Still think he was an idiot ... you just don't walk into an office (or anywhere else) with a gun in your hand ...

Open carry on business property may be okay in this situation (don't know 'cause its public) ...

Hope this is in the right category ... anyway,

A little background ... my wife works for a multi-million dollar company in the DFW area on the second floor of the building they occupy, with the "executives" being located on the first floor. The VP of Operations has a friend that is gunsmith on the side. Well, the CEO had a pistol that he wanted some work done on and had talked with the VP and his friend. No problem. Drop it off and they’ll take care of it.

He shows up the next day (with pistol in hand) and walks in the door on the second floor. MAJOR mayhem starts from the first person on … he got about 20 feet and (thankfully) one of the astute individuals on the floor took the gun from him, released the magazine and locked the slide open. Then put it in an envelope. This individual then continued on to the VP he was going to drop it of with.

How STUPID is that … and a CEO on top of it …

(Sorry … just finished reading the post on carrying into the range CCW or not. Open carry is still not legal in Texas.)

Rant off … just wanted to share.
