Summary
HB 1139 would remove the requirement that constables obtain a Department of Public Safety license to carry a concealed pistol or revolver. All other residents would still have to meet the existing licensing criteria. The change treats constables like other law‑enforcement officers who are already authorized to carry weapons without a civilian permit.
