Guys that live in Texas(concealed licensed or not), do you know if it is legal to carry an exposed firearm(holstered), while about on your own neighborhood property(meaning: front yard to the street, no more)? Like while cutting the grass, or sitting in the front yard, or playing a game of chess on the front lawn? Why you might ask? Just because this is AMERICA, and I don't think it should be considered ,"brandishing", if you have a safe, and holstered weapon visible while going about your daily dutys. If you leave the property, for whatever reason, I think you should have to conceal the weapon, and use your license, but at home I am kinda wonderin'.
I sometimes carrry an exposed firearm at home, would it be a crime of some sort to step outside to take the trash out with said firearm open carried???
Let me say this, NOT BRANDISHING said firearm, as in raising it or using it to incite panic or fear, but leaving it readily available as most firearms are....
I know it would be just easier to use my concealed license, and cover the weapon, but would like to know if open carry on your own property is legal, then why not do it. Rock the anti world, and bring more(hopefully positive news coverage) to the people that know it is not the (licensed)man at home taking out his trash with an exposed pistol, that is likely to want to rob a bank or anything else.Looking forward to your opinions and extensions of what I have started .
