Hello from Texas

[wardntx]

You know what say about Texas only steers and queers come from Texas. You don't look like a steer to me. lol i love that movie full melt jacket.
Glad have you join the team.

I'm from Texas as well. But I think I better pass on the introduction so I don't get mislabeled.

However, I do have horns.

Welcome to this forum.Enjoy yourself here!

that line was form "Officer and a Gentleman", but Im sure you already knew that.

y'all are both right...Gunnery SGT Hartman says nearly the same line on Full Metal Jacket as well when talking to PVT Cowboy during the opening few minutes in the barracks.

I am watching it right now...I mean...diligently staring at a broken camera monitor...

u and rat are conflicting.

I don't know that RatPatrol was referring to the law, or to his observations in North Texas.

In general for North Texas/DFW region:

Guns nothing smaller than a 9 mm/.38

Average pay for Unarmed is 7.00-10.00, and Armed is 10.00-15.00

I know I am a little late but; Texas does not limit to caliber the handgun a Security Officer can carry. An officer must be commissioned, and can carry a handgun of the type listed on his commission card.

NSA=Non-semi automatic
SA=Semi-auto and includes NSA.

STG=shotgun- to carry a shotgun on duty, or have one accessible, the card must have the STG designation.

Right now, rifles are not authorized.

Officers must qualify with a .38 or larger, but can carry any.

Arrest powers in Texas are the same as for any other person. There is no provision for special authority of Security Officers.
