The current Texas law is you can conceal a firearm in your car.

Concealed means can’t be seen.

I don’t understand the confusion.

In TX your car is considered part of your house. So you can have a concealed weapon ‘in your house’.

it took several legislative rewrites to get that dipsick Houston DA to quit charging people who were legally transporting their weapons.

I guess that clears it up. I had the impression from post #13 that a gun had to be "in plain sight" in a car. If concealing the gun is OK under the law, then that seems to be a smart way to go.

I would say, however, that if a policeman is walking toward me, I would not reach for my gun and try to "make an adjustment". It is what it is -- don't spook the cop.
