Texas Penal Code
Sec. 46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE HOLDER. (a) A license holder commits an offense if the license holder carries a handgun on or about the license holder's person under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, and intentionally displays the handgun in plain view of another person in a public place. It is an exception to the application of this subsection that the handgun was partially or wholly visible but was carried in a shoulder or belt holster by the license holder.
I use a "clip grip" daily. Shirttail out, concealed. I work in a part of town that tells me I should carry, but with a diverse group of people, so therefore I keep it concealed. No one has a clue and I feel protected. My Smith 640 with the clip grip and Silver Tip hollowpoints is comfortable and makes me feel OK about my safety as well as the people that are around me. Most do not live in that area and many are oblivious to the "possible" issues in the area.
To All,
Changing the law to allow carry concealed/openly in a "holster" & saying nothing more than that would be a SMART move on the part of the legislature.

To All,
ONE of the things that NEEDS to be changed in the current law is to ALLOW "under-skirt holsters".
(This is not a "big deal" for most men, though it IS for ladies, like my daughter, who wear skirts of various lengths & whose "garter-belt"/thigh sort of under-skirt holster is "of questionable legality" now.)
Note: My adult daughter generally wears "tea length" skirts with tall boots in cold weather at work & has several "lingerie-material holsters" to match various "outfits". - My daughter is FAR from alone in doing that & adult females are THE fastest growing sub-group of CCW/LTC new licensees.
