Is concealed carry allowed at the Alamo?

[GeorgeS]

Either in the buildings or only outside?

Based on the history, guns should be allowed unless you are a Mexican citizen.

But I don't really know the answer.

I found this

Gov. Abbott signs 7 guns rights bills into law at The Alamo - KTSA

Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed seven bills into law including permitless constitutional carry Thursday at The Alamo.

This was my approach. I did look for 06 signs but didn't see any

I went a few weeks ago. I didn't see any signs.

I would think it would be encouraged if you're a Texan

I don't remember seeing any signs during my visits.

Looking at their website, yes. But it hasn't been updated for Con Carry.

9. No unauthorized use of firearms. (Concealed and open carry allowed with permit only)

So no shooting people in the face....unless it is authorized.

Considering Texas Freedom Force camped out all open carry at the Alamo back in the summer of 2020, In don’t see an issue.

Thank you all!

I'm surprised anyone would even ask...

Jail is jail if you're in the wrong and a cop is having a bad day.
Yeah it's always funny until it isn't.

Back when the Travis Letter returned to the Alamo a few years back, I carried. Everyone was getting wanded. I gave my CHL to the security officer. He switched off the metal detecting wand before he swept me. He told me, "Just keeping you concealed," and smiled.

It’s a cute trope, but not applicable in this scenario.

Both state specific law and data supports my statement; standard disclaimer of criminal background and assholery towards an LEO apply.

I was a little surprised to learn that you can carry concealed in the Capitol Building in Austin...... just let the guards at the entry know about it, and proceed....

actually, I made that sound a little easier than it was. I had to go to the guards, show them my LTC, and then proceed on in.

I went this past summer. Showed mine and they let myself and my wife and daughter bypass the detector I was surprised as last time a few years ago I bypassed and they went thru.

Same here two months ago.
No problems.

I used to but traveling anywhere it was constantly giving me alerts. Talking about the app. But yes if I'm going somewhere I'll check the website.

Yes. But do not forget that the data are crowd-sourced, meaning that nothing is guaranteed to be correct or exact. You still need to look for signs yourself.
