Believe it or not, Texas law does not give property owners the right to allow guests on their property to carry handguns (just like you cannot give guests the right to drive drunk on your property). You can check PC46.02 and see for yourself. So unless they are a Peace Officer, etc., or some other 46.15 activity is occurring (of which a BBQ is NOT), it is a Class A.
I read thishttp://www.bakers-legal-pages.com/pc/4602.htm, and found I no problem. From what I read, I have determined that the property owner would have to call the police and press charges. Otherwise, the law cant come on his property!
I read this and found the same BS laws. Text of Texas Penal Code Sec. 46.15.
So I guess we'll just all be breaking the law. I respect the wishes of private property owners when I am a guest on their property. Never once have I asked anyone to consult with Legislature in reguard to their private property.
If the man ask me to join him in a open carry BBQ, then I'll be having a 5"1911 on my hip.
To be fancy and presentable, Im going to buy me a brand new perdy Kimber to make myself presentable at the man's BBQ.
I will also thank him for inviting me.
