Gun enthusiasts in Texas soon may be able to get their whiskey with their weapons if a proposal from the state Alcoholic Beverage Commission is accepted, according to an AP report.

The ABC board revealed the proposal Friday, which if passed would allow alcohol sales at gun shows but only if the shows don't allow live ammunition and if the shows don't allow buyers to pick up their weapons at the event.

The plan requires that the guns sold at the show be disabled and not easily returned to active use.

Current Texas law says that if a gun show is held at a venue licensed to sell alcohol, the sale of such beverages must be halted in the time it takes to set up, run and disassemble the gun show.

It remains unclear if the stipulations of alcohol sales at the shows -- not being able to take possession of a gun after purchase -- would be worth it to the gun enthusiasts. Alice Tripp, legislative director of the Texas State Rifle Association, said she doubts it would.

"Does that make any sense?" she said. "Who would buy a gun at a gun show where you couldn't take possession of it? No one is interested in selling alcohol at a gun show."

The National Rifle Association said it had nothing to do with the alcohol proposal.

"We got a request from a gun club in the Dallas-Fort Worth area to amend the rules," Texas ABC spokeswoman Carolyn Beck said.

The Texas ABC must conduct a a 30-day public comment period before any rules would be enacted allowing alcohol at gun shows in the state.

Beck said the ABC already has been contacted by numerous people concerned about the proposal, chiefly those that worry they wouldn't be allowed to bring their legally concealed handguns, according to the Texas Tribune. That was not the intention of the rule change, Beck said.
