I don't know if the activists are accomplishing their goal but I do know that both gubernatorial candidates campaigned on supporting open carry of handguns. (the democrat, after losing, reversed her position)
The reasoning behind the open carry activists with rifles is that everyone, including most Texans, think of Texas as a big pro-gun state with cowboys carrying six shooters on their hip. The activists are bringing up the fact that this is not true at all.
A Constitutional Carry Bill has been filed. Sign this petition supporting it. And contact your legislators. I want my open carry and I want it now!

The proper concern of society is the preservation of individual freedom; the proper concern of the individual is the harmony of society.

When you think about, the subject is very similar to the recent case involving the cake baker who lost in the lawsuit for refusing service to same-sex partners--though in that case bearing more on the First Amendment, you could as well argue that the right to at all times defend yourself is just as much a religious issue as marriage existing as a union between only a male and female.
