I am interested in purchasing a hand gun and getting my conceal carry license. I just need to stop purchasing car parts.

I'll try to attend the next show in town.
If you're "travelling" in texas, you can carry a concealed weapon in your car.
"Travelling" has been defined by driving through 3 or more counties. So even if you're not and a cop busts you with a unlicensed concealed weapon, you could notify him that you're, "travelling".
We don't go anywhere in this damn town without a heater.
