Looks like @Devonviolet will be the closest to you, she lives just south-southeast of Sulphur Springs. You will be about 75 miles from me. And @Latestarter is (I think) about 30 miles east of Devonviolet.
Congrats on your new place! You KNOW we want PICTURES!!!

Congrats @tressa27884 !!!
I know this is a bit older but just saw the thread.
Pretty restrictive over there in NH and TX
In VT it is Buy gun, carry gun, open or concealed. Just not in courthouses, school buildings or school busses.
That said, other than 30-06's in the rear window of pickups during hunting season, I can't say I've ever seen anyone other than a police officer carrying a gun openly.

I wouldn't call NH restricted. Just concealed carry. We can open carry all we want without a permit. I choose not to!

When I was younger, there were lots of rifles in the back window of pick up trucks. A gun rack for the truck was an essential accessory. To do that now would be stupid, it'd get your window smashed and rifle stolen.

People should generally assume that if you have a rifle in your back window you probably have a pistol on your hip. Lol but no people don't do that around here. Less because of fear of it being stolen and more to avoid the anti gun crowd's comments.
My husband saw two separate people open carrying at the gas station this week. Don't see it too much.

Open carry is advertising. Dumb. If you're going to carry, make it concealed. If a robber comes in McDonalds and sees a gun on someone's hip, that guy will get shot before anyone else, so why announce it to the world? Be a sneaky so-and-so and hide that pistol.
Well, there's another way of looking at that as well... by carrying openly, you may just stop that potential armed thief before he tries anything because he knows if he misses, it could (most likely WILL) mean his life. Used to have and use the rifle rack, wouldn't do that now for many reasons. Anyway... kinda off the subject. Congrats @tressa27884 
Welcome to TX in advance. Yeah, I agree with Bay, closest to @Devonviolet and then me... Bay is further south, then even further south is @Ferguson K and @frustratedearthmother . I guess @animalmom is ~4 hours west of us. You'll have to share some pics of what you finally decided to buy! And once you get settled, we'll have to get together!
