Re: South Texas traveling
I live in the Valley and asked this exact question during a CHL renewal course several years ago. The instructor was a retired Hidalgo County Sheriff's Department Investigator. He stated that in the eyes of Texas law, Border Patrol Agents are not Law Enforcement Officers and that there is no requirement to present a CHL to them. My own plan is that if I am ever pulled over by a Border Patrolman and asked for identification while carrying, I will give him my CHL as well as my wallet size passport. In reality I go through Border Patrol checkpoints quite frequently and have never been asked for identification.
