. Try it with some of the hard-asses in downtown Dallas.

Were the "hard asses" mean to you?

 

[Charlie]

Why the hell would want to go to downtown Dallas? I used to live in Dallas and it's probably worse now.

 

[Charlie]

You know them personally, so you'll be the recipient of favoritism, so that's not really what I'm talking about. Try it with some of the hard-asses in downtown Dallas.

As said earlier, do whatever you feel is necessary! If you didn't carry, you wouldn't have to worry at all.

hmmm, guess someone should let my local gun range know...all the employees open carry...

Penal Code 46.02. Premises under your control.

This discussion has nothing to do with any treatment I've personally experienced with a police officer. I'm not the type that ever gets stopped. But I've been around enough to know that the discretion received from a smaller-town police officer cannot necessarily be expected from a big-city police officer.

 

[BJG]

I still think that we're having a communication breakdown as to the degree of "printing" that is necessary to put one at risk for "failure to conceal". The blanket statement that "printing is not illegal" is too broad and misleading.

 

[GRAYWOLF]

Do people at your range engage in target shooting?

Well, yes, "people" do shoot targets..."employees" generally, do not. "People" are not allowed to open carry, only "employees".

Some ranges do not allow open carry for safety reasons. It's not a crime.

I fail to see the difference between me allowing someone to OC on my property and an Range owner allowing employees to OC on their property...(or I just missed your point)

I disagree. You seem to have a mistaken idea that you refuse to let go, and is based on nothing but fantasy and conjecture.

No, that is an accurate statement of the range in question.

Range owner cannot allow employees to OC on his property. If the employees are acting as range officers they are participating in a firearm related sporting activity, and may OC. There is also old case law in Texas that allows persons to OC at gun shops.

People are shooting at the range.

 

[Bithabus]

No, that is an accurate statement of the range in question.

The customers may legally OC since they are participating in a firearm related sporting event. If range policy forbids this that is another matter.

 

[GRAYWOLF]

That is not the point. I am trying to figure out the difference between a Range owner allowing people (employees, specifically) on his property that are not engaging in any shooting activity to OC and me allowing someone on my property to OC.

Whatever happened to the Smilie with the guy beatin' the dead horse! Sheeesh!!! (regarding the "imprinting" thingy)

There is no difference. In either case it is illegal.

The range employees may OC if they control the property (ie owner, manager), or they are supervising shooting sports, or there is a gun store attached to the range and they work in the gun store.

After Sept 1 people may legally OC on your property.
