Give one of our defense attorneys at Cofer Luster Law Firm, PC a call to discuss your legal rights with regards to carrying a gun in a vehicle in Texas. Can I have a gun in my car in Texas? BUT not like in the picture above! But… We know. Lawful carry of a gun while in a vehicle in Texas only requires the following four qualifiers : The handgun must NOT be in plain view; it must be concealed.
If you are, then you have bigger problems to worry about! Federal law does NOT prohibit you from possessing a firearm.
Gun owners who are on their way to hunt, traveling to and from target practice, taking their firearm into a gun shop for repairs, or transporting their firearm for any other reason need to ensure that, if the weapon is concealed, it is kept unloaded when it is in the car.
Otherwise, they will need to possess a concealed carry permit. It is also important to note that city and county governments can make it unlawful for anyone to carry or transport a loaded rifle or shotgun for the purposes of hunting on public roads in their jurisdiction.
If the police pull you over, and it is determined that you are improperly transporting a firearm by concealing a loaded weapon without a permit, then you could face severe penalties, even if you purchased the gun through perfectly legal means. If you are a second-time offender, the crime becomes a Class 6 felony, and the penalties become more severe. Third-time offenders are guilty of a Class 5 felony.
Transporting a loaded concealed weapon without a permit is a serious offense, and a conviction can have hugely negative consequences. Your email address will not be published.
