Constitutional Carry in Texas
Texas HB 1927, enacted as the Firearm Carry Act of 2021, went into effect on September 1st, 2021 making Texas the 21st state to pass a form of constitutional (permitless) carry in the United States. Though permitless carry may now be legal, those choosing to carry without a permit are in fact subject to restrictions relating to eligibility requirements, methods of carry and locations where a firearm can be carried, along with a number of additional rules which do not apply to Texas LTC (License to Carry) holders.
