Growing up in Texas, my uncles used to carry their riffles on a gun rack by the rear windows of their trucks.
You can still do that. But nowadays people don't have much respect and will break in and steal it.
@@PrimalDefenseCo Out in the Texas brush country, everyone live by a code of hard work, morality and decency and that wasn't a problem.
@@stevegarcia9098 work hard to keep it that way. There are people out there working hard to change it.
Same experience when I was a kid. Technically you can still do this, but these days parking outside for more than 30 mins or so would mean coming back to a smashed window and guns gone.
riffles, ????
I live in Texas as well. If I walk out the door I'm armed, shoulder hostler, when I get back home I am armed as well, with my shoulder hostler. I trust nobody. Thank you for his video.
Same.
Thank you for watching. Appreciate you!
What is a hostler, ?? did you mean holster, ???
I carry while I’m in the shower.
@@fallenseraph5V that's what's up.
@@nutindoin2 Are you the comment police? Loser.
God Bless Texas 🤘🏼 we’re a different breed out here
Sure are!
Finely catching up to Arizona.
Yes! An "in" type of breed.
No you're not.
Yes sir. SE Houston here.
I got pulled over in Beeville, TX and I was asked if I had any weapons. I informed the officer that I had a pistol in my console. He asked me to open it so he could see it. I did and I had it in a holster. He said that I was all good since it was in a holster. I respectfully told him that he needed to review the law because it actually doesn’t matter since it wasn’t in plain sight. Never assume that the police know the law. He was cool about it and It was a good experience.
That is true.
If you are a policeman in the state of Texas, assume they have a gun and pull yours as you leave your car. Live safe and long .
I was recently stopped because of brake light issue and gave my carry license and had my gun inside the center console and DPS officer told me the exact same thing. She was reciting that a gun in the state of Texas if you are carrying in the vehicle should be holstered, that really surprised me.
Where is beeville Texas? What city is nearest to the city?
Goliad probably.
We just had a law pass in Louisiana, concealed carry, no permit,18 years of age.
@@JRoy-1969 just saw that! Congratulations Louisiana 🎉
I responded to a sheriff station a few months ago to do an evidentiary blood draw on a man who was arrested for DUI. They were also charging him with unlawful possession of a handgun. It was wrapped in a towel, under a seat. They said it would have been fine if it had been in a holster under the seat. There was an algorithm on the wall behind where the man was sitting that bore this out. You could be legal to possess in all respects and still get charged if the gun is not in a holster. If I have handguns in the vehicle, they are either in a holster on my hip, or in a holster inside my range bag., or in a holster in the center console. I'm in Texas.
Under those circumstances, arrested for DWI, someone will probably get charged with unlawful carry even if it is in a holster under Texas Penal code 46.02.
Yep
same
Good info. However, let me add that you’re assuming it wasn’t in a holster.
@@PrimalDefenseCoI was going to say the same. Goes for having drugs around the gun. You’re getting charged either way.
Learning so much from you man! Thanks man and looking forward to more constitutional carry videos 🔥
Welcome brotha! Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much Julian. Your first example of carrying concealed on body is how and where I carry. Always holstered. Even with seatbelt on I have easy access to the grip and can draw easily. Have a great rest of your week!👍😃

Good vid. I'm sure everything I'm about to comment on is somewhere below, but I'll comment anyway. I truly understand the demonstrations of placing a firearm out of sight in the cargo area, door pocket, etc. People get confused when the law changes. However, we are far more likely to get into an MVA many times over the likeliness of having to defend ourselves (the reason we carry). I've worked enough wrecks to know stuff gets scattered all over the place. Don't want our firearm off running around in the bushes after we've put our pumpkins through the wind screen. Centre console, especially the deeper ones, is probably a safe space, maybe the glove box, but again I've seen glove boxes pop open like a jack-in-the-box during a wreck. Anyway, good vid. We always need a reminder, especially when laws change like they did here in TX.
Will most definitely go flying if not secure. I prefer to carry it on myself.
I live in Texas and most people I know have about a half dozen guns in all the places you mentioned:)
You keep great company 😆

@@PrimalDefenseCo So what if you’re 20 years old with a clean record, but without a license to carry? Can I legally carry a pistol in my vehicle? And if so, it has to be out of plain sight? Just clearing it up as I was still a little confused after watching the video a few times. Thank you in advance. ❤️
Please do not just toss your firearm in a seat, under a seat, or just lose in your cargo area. If you need it and you have to stop or accelerate abruptly, chances are it will move and not be where you expect it to be. That's not something you want in a situation where you need to get to it quickly. I have a kydex holster the the belt clip attaches nicely to the side pocket and map pocket on the side of my center console. You can also get magnets meant retaining handguns in automobiles. If you have a large center console, I suggest affixing a kydex holster in there so it's always in the same position, preferably with the grip oriented in a way that makes it easy to grab.
We have a more detailed and updated vid. About a month old. Appreciate the feedback brother.

Love this channel!!! I subscribed!!! Keep em coming bro. Very informative.
thanks for the support bud
I asked last video about open carrying with your gun holstered in the cup holder. Today I actually seen a cop getting lunch and asked him and he said as long as the firearm stays in the holster you can place it wherever you want. You just can’t have the firearm it’s self sitting in the cupholder.
Thats how I read the law. But that goes only for people 21 and over, or people under 21 with a license to carry. Me personally, if I were to stop someone with a gun in a cupholder, 21 or not, I wouldn't care. It's their business.
Yeah. I’m 21 and have my license. I only place my firearm holstered in the cup holder when I’m one the road for multiple hours.
@@jaypap73 I usually pin it between arm rest and seat. Got to make room for that Texas sweet tea.
@@PrimalDefenseCo If you have it in plain sight you need to be really careful how you move and talk to a leo they aren't exactly known for being rational around weapons with certain people
I will never understand why people dont just leave the gun on themselves when driving. My conceal carry doesnt come off from the minute I leave my house to the minute I get home. Why take it off in the vehicle? I have great access to my 4 o'clock position while seated.
Got arrested for unlawful carry about 2 weeks ago glad i ran into this video
Sorry to hear that man. If you don't mind, what did the officer get you for exactly? How did he say you were unlawfully carrying?
Improper display of a tag, handgun was in plain view in a holster in between driver seat and center console, im older than 21. No criminal record.
@@brandonm103 I tell people man, that there is room for interpretation.
I think it's a chicken Sh arrest though.
What does "carried in a holster mean"? That is the question. I hope you got yourself an attorney
@@brandonm103 I want people to know your story bud. Whatever you want to tell me, or if you ever want to explain it on zoom or something, let me know. I'm all ears.
Went to high school in the Valley in Texas in the 80's and students carry rifles on a rack by the rear window of a pickup. It was a common sight and no one stole anything.
For holsters, I like the SERPA holster as it unlocks with the trigger finger.
If I open carry, I prefer a holster with a lock too. I mostly conceal carry unless the occasion calls for open carry.
Very good information, I actually got my LTC through your class in LF, I'll subscribe and follow for more information and remember to keep one in the chamber

Welcome. Thank you.
Creepy that I was thinking about this and it pops up
Gov can see read your thoughts it’s to late they actually can control you you an your thoughts
I've seen something about wifi and AI able to read brain waves.
in the late 80s in texas we depended on the texas travelers law for carrying a gun in your car, live in one county, travel from that county through another county into another county, it was okay to have a gun in your car, in texas. i made the mistake of thinking the truth is always best, going from texas to New Orleans i got sleepy and pulled off the highway to grab a quick nap, not being familiar with the layout of the parrish's i couldn't find my way back on the interstate, 3 am and driving up and down streets looking for an on ramp, so i get pulled over, first words from the officer, do you have weapons in the car, yes i do, so after a long discussion, several hours and finally taken to a judge later that morning, i lost the gun and was finally on my way. they don't give a crap in Louisiana how legal it is in texas it ain't legal here.
Ahh man, that's terrible.
I know Louisiana just passed constitutional carry a few days ago. I don't have all the details on that yet.
They do accept the Texas LTC though.
Louisiana makes up their laws as they go and if you have Texas plates you stand an excellent chance of getting a ticket.
They should be a little leniant on that...because Texans spends hundreds of millions of dollars every year in Louisiana casinos....
Thank you so much, I just turn 21 and got my first handgun been wondering how could I carry my handgun in my truck the right way.
Thank you. Appreciate you taking the time.
I'm from Texas and have guns loaded and out in the open in my home (no kids), but am still hesitant to carry in my car unless I'm going to a bad part of town for some reason. Don't want trouble with the police.
Hopefully this video can help put you at ease brother. Take a look.
ua-cam.com/video/BFpFg0olS48/v-deo.html
I mounted a cheap holster to the side of my center console, pistol comes off of me and then rides in that holster while traveling then before I get out just pull from that holster and go into the one on my belt, easy
I got a similar rig in my truck.
Same here.
People with California lic plates can only carry a spoon or a #2 pencil for self-defense
😆😂😂😂🤣🤣
ha #2 is probably illegal with some lead laws or has a banner 2" wide about cancer causing agents or something
e.g
WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer.” WARNING
Dam Cali
WARNING: Pencils are now banned, and spoon must be plastic with a handle no longer that 2.5". Thank you.
I’m moving to Texas next month, so this video actually helped me understand. I have one question though: I was told that a round can’t be in the chamber when riding in a vehicle, is there anyone that currently lives in Texas that could help me here on whether it’s true?
Not true. Stay safe, stay ready, and keep one in the chamber.
I stay in Texas, Dallas to be exact and I’m not sure but I keep one in the head just to be safe.
I am in Dallas too. You can keep a round in the chamber legally. Always.

Concealed carry under 21? Isn’t federal law that under 21 cannot possess , much less carry?
@@johnkemp4370 Federal law is 18 to possess a handgun.
21 to buy from an FFL dealer.
Private sales are not affected.
Just to clarify I’m over 21 and not licensed. Can I keep my fire arm in plane view carried in a holster and loaded?
In a holster, plain view. The exact wording is, "Carried in a holster".
Section 46.02 of the Texas Penal Code
No it must be hidden.
It no longer has to be hidden in your vehicle. I carry on my right side with my shirt tucked behind it where it can't really be seen, and then I move the holster around to conceal it when I get out.
DO NOT leave a weapon in plain view an unoccupied vehicle. That goes without saying though
Concealed or in a holster Concealed...that's what my instructor said but I could be wrong...2024
and remember, there's no law that says your dog can't open carry

True
That’s California there. You can’t even have the ammo in the same compartment.
@@fallenseraph5V Guns are illegal in Chicago but they have one of the highest murder rates.
In the county I live in, if you are carrying a gun in your car and you commit another crime, such as DWI, Racing on Highway, Reckless Driving, etc., they will also charge you with unlawful carrying a weapon. In the majority of cases I've seen, they will dismiss the UCW if you forfeit the weapon.
In Texas, that is all across the board. But just as in your county, the way D.A.s offices handle the case is up to their discretion, such as dropping charges if someone forfeits their firearm.
Sooo, if you have your firearm, DON'T BE STUPID!
😅😅
I enjoyed the video.
I carry during travel within the state loaded mag,empty chamber holstered between seat an console visible
Carry on 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Just to clarify you can still carry in your vehicle at 18 under 21 concealed only?
Correct.
But becareful some officers don't know the law I was arrested for this in Bexar county even tho charges were dropped I was still arrested
It's about time other states are catching up Arizona was only open carry state for years
Texas has been open carry since 2016.
WRONG! over half the states were “open” carry, then Arizona became one of four (incl. Alaska, Wyoming, and Vermont) to be Constitutional Carry…. Texas finally caught up but has these weird limits so cops can try and screw you over on technicalities….
Another great video.
Thanks again
thank you!
You should do update video on new laws
We are working on remaking a bunch of vids. Some are a bit outdated. I appreciate you man.
You must also be sober. Being intoxicated while carrying a firearm is a crime.
That is true.
And a very dumb thing for a person to do.

Your can carry without a license in your vehicle. And correct, if you are under 21 and no license the pistol has to be out of plain sight.
I write this August 4th 2023, 18 year old can Constitutional Carry open or concealed in Texas.
@@coltwinchester6124how????
@@6lackRain How what?
18, 19, and 20 year old people also can now get the License to Carry in Texas.
to confirm... In the state of TX you can carry a concealed holstered hand gun in the vehicle WITHOUT a permit.
Correct. You can even carry open.
If you are under 21, it must stay concealed in your car, or they need a license to carry.

@@geovanny206 the legal way to own a handgun under 21 and at least 18 in texas is buying it from another texas resident who is legally allowed to buy a pistol , they can can sell you the pistol they already own. you cannot buy a pistol from an FFL which is the people at gunshops and academt walmart etc its gotta be another normal texas resident. from there u can have a bill of sale just write ur signatures and contact info and the amount paid for the gun and each keep a copy and ur all set

How about in an ammo box with important papers on the passenger side floorboard ?
You can carry it there.
My holster is nose down wedged in the crack between the passenger seat and console most of the time. If there is a passenger in the vehicle it's on the drivers side.
I do that too sometimes. Depends on what I'm wearing and what I'm carrying.
Great.
In California it is Ridiculous.
Handgun in a locked container of some sort, empty and ammo in the passenger compartment or reverse.
Unless laws have changed that has been the transportation regulation for decades.
Uniformed Exposed Security can carry loaded to and from the job site only with No stops in between.
For non licensed civilians it's a misnomer to carry. There is still the Castle and Stand Your Ground laws.
There is a reason criminals feel safer in California.
That blows. I would like to do some work over there. I just need about 100k more subscribers in order to justify the expense 😂😂 😭.

@@PrimalDefenseCo
There is many 2A people there that are current and retired law enforcement and Security Services.
I believe Newsom is trying to eliminate the carry licenses there.
There are few, even Assistant District Attorneys have a hard time getting carry licenses in the big cities.
2A people that are not law enforcement or security professionals really don't know much as they don't study firearm laws.

Watching TV I have noticed a lot of cops ask if you are carrying? When someone says yes, they use it as an excuse to remove them from the vehicle and then search the vehicle. In Texas, 1. does a constitutional carry have to give notice to an officer that they are carrying? 2. If not suspected of a crime and a cop asks the question, are you required to truthfully answer? 3. Can you ask or demand that you are suspected of a crime before answering any questions not related to your DL and insurance?
Under case law Pennsylvania V. Mimms and Maryland V. Wilson, police do not need an excuse to have you step out of your vehicle as long as they have you on a legal traffic stop.
When detained even for a traffic stop, an officer can pat you down for weapons.
You don't need to answer any questions other than providing your identifying info. If lawfully detained.
Randomly being asked to ID by an officer, you do not need to answer.
But if you are suspected of a crime or believed to be a witness to a crime, then you do need to provide identifying info.
If you are under arrest, lawfully detained, or believed to be a witness to a crime and you provide false identifying info, you will be charged with Failure to ID TPC 38.02.
You do not need to tell him that you are carrying, but I do. The stops have gone smoothly and no citations. All my citations have been before I started carrying.
The decision is yours.
@@PrimalDefenseCo I graduated from a Tx police academy in 1988 and received my TCLEOSE certification after passing the state exam. I also completed two 6 month interns with police departments, one of which was Dallas PD., but got sidetracked into the Marine Corps and an injury left me paralyzed while waiting on an academy date for a federal agency. Your response was very good and detailed. I will never have any problems in the event I’m pulled over by the police. I’m no longer an expert on police procedures and the latest laws, especially when it comes to carrying a weapon. I do hate seeing video of police crossing the line of violating civil liberties in the name of officer safety which is sometimes an excuse to go on a fishing expedition. I would of been extremely guilty of this had I went to work as an officer because that is what I was taught. I didn’t reread my original reply but I believe it was about officers in states other than Texas over reacting to drivers who admit to legally carrying a weapon and then being removed from their vehicle and having everything searched. Essentially being treated like someone suspected of a crime when there was no such suspicion and the only thing that lead to being removed from the vehicle followed by the gun being secured and the entire vehicle being searched was a statement of having a gun in the vehicle. I can’t imagine that is ok or legal in any state. I’m looking forward to an overzealous officer using “his safety” as an excuse to pull me out of the vehicle and separate me from my weapon. Driving from a wheelchair and it being impossible to exit my truck on the side of the road in most situations, will put any overzealous officer in a conundrum.
@@kerrymorris1892 Im a 12 year officer in deep south Texas. And you are right, some officers are overzealous.

Yes you can. Must be out of plain sight just like if you were carrying any other pistol. Unless you had a license to carry.
What about if you're convicted of a non violent felony that is over 5 years old ? Could you legally transport a firearm in your vehicle ?
No sir. Only exception to state law is when you are bringing it home after purchase. It is still against federal law.
What happens if you have a gun in your vehicle holstered, out of sight but your drivers license has expired for 2 years or more? No felony or misdemeanor convictions ever?

Is mandatory in Texas have a holster if the gun is in your body. Beginning September 1, 2021, HB1927 made it legal in Texas for most people 21 or over to carry a handgun in a holster without a permit both openly and/or concealed.
There is no mandate to have it in a holster if it is concealed.
It is required to be in a holster if carried openly.
Regardless, I strongly suggest a person uses a good holster.
One thing important is to NOT have accessories on your firearm (lasers,flashlights) no warning signs or stickers that you are armed.
Just curious, how are accessories bad?
Officer took my gun bc one was under my seat & one was in my truck in case the one under my seat didn’t have hostler at I wrong & will they keep my firearm forever
In Texas?
Hey I have a question, I’m 18 looking to get my first handgun. At this point in time I do not have an LTC however I am looking to get one in the near future. From my understanding I am able to carry in a vehicle or vehicle under my control as long as it’s concealed, before I get my LTC, is that correct? I have a clean record as well.
That is correct.
@@PrimalDefenseCoThanks
Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Thank you for watching. Appreciate ya
If it's not in plain view do we still need a holster?
No sir.
Is a magnet under the dash considered a holster?
@@bvierville1 there isn't a legal definition for holster in the lawbook. But there is a common definition. In my opinion, a magnet does meet the definition.
I personally would not care. But depending on the jurisdiction you are in, the political climate, the officers bias, you may or may not run into a problem.
I need a Florida video updated video for the same subject in 2024 for travel and crossing state lines.
I wish I could my friend. I'm not sure if I can do it and cover everything that needs to be covered. I would like to work with someone in Florida to make it happen.
I simply do not know all of Florida carry law.
@@PrimalDefenseCo there really is none that's the problem. Thank you so much for your response. There's a guy down here in the Tampa area but he got big fast and the content kinda went too. Best regards to you. I wish we had open carry other than travel hunting camping fishing but it is hell pushing the constitution down here with the corruption. God bless you.
@@dabzprincess92 I will try.
So, no matter how I travel with it...it has to be in a holster...I keep mine in a soft lunch box type bag...does it have to be in a holster ...
If it is concealed or out of plain sight, by law, it does not need to be in a holster.
So I’m 20 and getting my first pistol on Friday. If I have it in my glovebox or center console does it need to be holstered?
No sir. It will be out of plain sight.
@@PrimalDefenseCo oh ok I just wanna make sure. I don’t want to break any laws not meaning to. So just to clarify. It’s all good as long as it’s out of sight. It can be in the side of my door pocket not holstered with one in the head aswell right?
@@akasqizzed8663 yes, but, an inexperienced or anti gun cop can always give you grief in the door pocket. But as long as it is out of plain sight, you are good. Texas Penal Code 46.02
@@PrimalDefenseCo alright. Thank you so much for the clarification. Can never know too much when it comes to gun laws. It’s too easy to think your doing everything legal and end up with a felony lmao
@@PrimalDefenseCosince you have known everything I ask. If I bring my pistol to the range. Am I able to buy 9mm for it at 20 years old.
What if I had a charge with a family assault but I didn’t hurt them at all. and they dropped it down to a criminal mischief
@@Dirtysavage6760 criminal mischief convictions do not bar someone from possessing a firearm.
It does prohibit them from carrying in public for 5 years if it was a criminal mischief involving a firearm.
@@PrimalDefenseCo and another question, what if my brother sold me his revolver is it ok for me to carry? I have a holster for it.
@@Dirtysavage6760 yes siiir. As long as you are legally allowed to possess it, you can buy from anyone pretty much.
@@PrimalDefenseCo awesome thank you for the info sir
@@Dirtysavage6760 no problem. Appreciate the support man..hit that subscribe button and the bell! Thank you bro!
Hello Texan here. i had a situation today where an angry road raging driver followed me and stopped behind me at a red light (where i couldnt drive away) and got out of the vehicle before approaching the driver side window and punching it in a threatening manor (although he didnt break my window). I waited for the light to turn green and quickly drove off. Do i have the right to use a firearm in self defense from my vehicle in this situation? Of course I don’t want to shoot somebody unless absolutely necessary but today it seemed like I was trapped in a bad situation. Many thanks.
I'm going to try and make a quick vid for ya. If I can't, I'll do my best to explain it here for you.
@@PrimalDefenseCo Thank you very much🙏 your time and knowledge is appreciated more than you know !
Great info….what about these gun mounts that go under the driver side dash, like where your feet go? It’s out of “plain view” but had a cop say it was in “plain view”. Or is it one of those Officer discretion deals?
Officers will use their discretion as to what is visible. But if it's not in plain sight, it is not in plain sight even if they say it is. Unfortunately if you get in trouble, you will need an attorney to straighten that out for you.
Here is a little video on those mounts 👇

Amen brother!
I purchased my first handgun I don’t have a permit yet I’m in Texas can I ride with it in my center console until I get permit ?
Yes. How old are you though?
Yes,yes.👍👍👍
Appreciate the support! Thank you!
Now your getting somewhere 🤝🏻 so if you had your record expunged that means you pass a background check ?
Also I did a Hazmat background check so TSA can decide if I qualify for a Hazmat endorsement on my CDL.
If you have had the record expunged, it should be as if the charges never existed.
