This may be old news, but it is the best I can find: A felon may not possess a gun until five years after release from prison (or from parole, or community supervision, etc., whichever is later) and then, only at the premises where the person lives (see Penal Code § 46.04). A violation is a 3rd degree felony.

A gun for protection is more likely to get you into trouble than not. You may want to reconsider its value to you.

What are the common law rules in Texas regarding property ownership disputes?

In Texas, common law rules for property ownership disputes are based on principles such as adverse possession, easements, and boundary disputes. Adverse possession allows someone to claim ownership of land if they openly and continuously use it for a certain period of time. Easements grant the right to use someone else's property for a specific purpose. Boundary disputes involve disagreements over property lines and can be resolved through legal action or negotiation.
