Will USCCA defend me if I carry in a gun free zone?

@Craig_AR: Do you have a link to the Branca videos or a site address? Thanks…

Good to see USCCA is actively involved in CA. There’s an event in Exeter (between Fresno and Bakersfield) on Tuesday.

Resurrecting a long dead thread, but this concern cropped up in my head again.

Simply put, I live in Texas, and in Texas we have the 30.06 and 30.07 signs. These are provisions to the Texas Penal code title 7, chapter 30.

  • Section 30.06 addresses Trespass by a License Holder with a Concealed Handgun.
  • Section 30.07 addresses Trespass by a License Holder with an Openly Carried Handgun.

These sections outline the legal requirements for signage and the consequences for carrying a handgun in prohibited areas. If you see a big sign posted with those sections quoted, then you’re not supposed to carry there.

Case in point, I recently visit a Legoland and Sea Life aquarium in Arlington, TX. According to Texas penal code, I’m not supposed to carry concealed in there.

IF A DEFENSIVE SHOOTING OCCURED, and I was forced to draw and fire, would USCCA trigger my coverage despite me carrying where I wasn’t supposed to?

It is not a federally banned place to carry, just a Texas state law, which looks like it relates to tresspass.

@Matt75 This has come up many times. P.S. Welcome back. :slightly_smiling_face:

The answer is “yes” … You can still be charged with a “carry in a gun free zone” but.
