[QUOTE="rsj11, post: 1542672, member: 19051"] New member here! I'm moving to Tulsa for graduate school very soon. I have a valid Texas CHL (CCW) permit and am likely keeping my TX (parents) address for all official purposes. My reasoning is, (I found this on the TX DPS site) FAQ "If I am a college student and attend school out of state, do I have to turn in my license to DPS or change my home address? [B]No. If you are merely attending a university in another state, you may keep your permanent address on your concealed handgun license..[/B]." It seems that Oklahoma will honor any VALID permit from TX, and because of the above quote, I should be good-to-go. That being said, I'm trying to learn the major differences, primarily to respect OK law and be a responsible carrier. I'd appreciate any responses:thanku: So far I am seeing: [B]1[/B] No caliber larger than .45 (non-issue for me) [B]2[/B] I can't have loaded rifles/long guns in a vehicle? [B]3[/B] Can I carry multiple (two) CCWs? (example, Glock on hip, Ruger LCP as a back up gun in pocket?) [B]4[/B] In general (not just carry) Are there any mag capacity limits What about AR high capacity mags? [B]5[/B] Important: I have no intention to EVER carry on to a campus, BUT what about parking lots? From handgunlaw.us it looks like I'm allowed a concealed weapon in my car, parked on a college campus.. right??? [B]6[/B] In TX, only a "intentional" failure to conceal is illegal. Thus, "printing" is [I]almost[/I] not going to cause a legal issue (although I do everything possible to prevent this). How does OK treat accidental failure to conceal or printing? *note I understand officer discretion would probably be the big issue, but I'm looking for the law [B]7[/B] On a non-carry side of things, Are AR15s or other long guns subject to any OK laws (they are >16inch barrels) [B]8 [/B]Also, am I able to purchase any firearms in OK with a TX DL and CHL permit? [B]9[/B] Can anyone suggest any other changes from TX law that I need to re-read or learn? Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
