Viffer wrote: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.

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. That's just one example.

I'm just continuing to sort out all the "ifs", "ands", and "buts." And again, thanks in advance for any guidance.
I just wanted to clarify something.
In this instance that we are discussing carrying loaded doesn't make it any more legal.
Technically loaded or unloaded doesn't make any difference except for Childrens access to a gun and hunting regulations.

However The loaded and unloaded conditions may make a difference as mitigated circumstances if someone is charged with unlawful carry.

Fer instnace some is carrying in their car. and breaks a law that is more serious than a class C.The LEO finds the gun new in box unloaded. The LEO, judges, and untimatly the Jury may give some concideratation of the gun being unloaded.

I knew a retired policeman who kept the old police baton and drove nails through the upper end of it. It was something to see. Scary looking in the least.

While we are clarifying things...is there a legal limit to how many handguns you can conceal on you? I mean strictly speaking it is a concealed hunGUN license not a Concealed handGUNS license so I was just mulling on the legal ramifications of multiple gun carrying.

Currently I carry two guns and want to know if that is legal or if I am on dodgy ground (Oh and Yes, I do have current, valid CHL :lol: )

the law does not limit the number of guns you can carry .

interesting story ...
during my class , a LEO was telling a story of pulling someone over for a traffic violation .
the CHL holder had 17 guns . some on his person and some in the vehicle .

even though this wasn't illegal , the LEO was not happy about it .
he gave the guy a ticket for the traffic violation and told him he didn't want to see him in his county again .

Some states, like NM, do limit your carry to one concealed firearm. Other states, like Texas, allow you to carry however many you want as long as you can keep them all properly concealed.

And as far as church carry goes, mine attends church with me religiously. :mrgreen:

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me
