In The Crosshairs:

In this episode I will be discussing the need to remove unnecessary and potentially dangerous restrictions on the most law-abiding of Texans – i.e. those with a Texas CHL or LTC.  Also covered is how this change will thwart attempts by dishonest local officials to violate Texas law.

History of CHL/LTC in Texas:

In the final ainstallment of the History of Conceale-Carry in Texas, we will look at several bills passed in the 2015 Texas Legislative Session.  Three bills directly impacted CHL or LTCs, and one indirectly impacts these folks.
