    My question is: My Glock 23 is chambered in 40sw. Can I concealed carry if I have inserted a conversion barrel for 9mm? My previous state said no but what does Texas say, if anything. Thank you. God Bless Texas.

    I wouldn’t do it on a carry gun. Too easy for a lawyer to twist it into something it isn’t. Shoot it at the range with the conversion, but carry bone stock.

    Horrible legal advice. In fact, it's horrible advice period.

    Show me legal precedence for this in Texas. Just one.

    I'd use a RPG against a home invader if I had a functioning one!

    My G17 Gen 5 has a Apex Trigger, extended slide lock, all steel recoil spring, and a barrel with conventional rifling.

    There isn’t a single situation where this would turn a lawful self defense shooting into a crime.
