AR-15 pistol vehicle carry

[Blain]

I'm picking up an AR pistol soon. I hog hunt about 10 minutes from my house. I had planned on just throwing the gun in the front seat when I head out. But, since it is considered a pistol it has to be concealed, correct? If it were a SBR, it would be fine even though the pistol and SBR would basically be the same. Texas law references long guns and handguns, does anyone know the definition of these based upon Texas law?

I guess I'll just toss it in the back and throw a towel over it until I reach my destination for now.

I believe that you are correct with all your thoughts on this matter.

I have been buying these from Midway KLiK to carry my guns to and fro. I think that I am gonna have one cut down for my AR pistol.

That sock is a good idea, thanks.

Grocery bag in the passenger seat meets the letter of the law (as long as it's not sticking out).

You don't have to conceal it in your vehicle if you are going hunting.
