I am a Texas resident, a lover of the constitution, and a proud gun-owner. Texas is supposed to be a very "pro-gun" state, yet Texas is one of only 7 states that forbids open-carrying of a firearm under any circumstances.
I am interested in working through grass-roots political activism and finding out more about the gun laws in Texas, specifically the ban on open-carrying of handguns. I then want to contact state legislators who are pro-second amendment and work with them to get support for a bill allowing for open-carry. Ideally, Texas would be like New Hampshire where everyone can open-carry without a permit.
Does anyone know what the gun law history in Texas is? How would I go about researching the history of fun laws, specifically the statute or statutes that prohibit open-carry? Does anyone know who the pro-second amendment legislators in Texas are, or any websites where I can see who is gun friendly in either the federal or state governments?
Thank you so much for your help.
