I figured there had to be SOME reason people would get a TX CHL when a Utah one is so much less expensive, easier to get, and easier to maintain. I'm in Indiana and it costs $75 for a lifetime license to carry handgun and all it takes is a 10 minute trip to the local LE office to get fingerprinted and pick up the application. We have nice things like open carry, but crappy things like screwy school zone laws (basically there is no way to know when you are on school property and it is strict liability) and no transporting pistols (even unloaded locked in the trunk) without a license.

His wife is a teacher, so it might be a good idea for him to just get the TX one in case he happens to end up on school property.

Thanks, if this really is true, I will probably recommend he just get a UT permit since it is much easier and cheaper to obtain.

I don't live in TX, but am trying to find an answer for a relative of mine who does.

I know TX honors the Utah non-resident permits, but do they honor them if the holder is a TX resident without a TX CHL?

I am from Indiana, and while IN honors all licenses (even foreign) they do not honor non-resident permits IF you are a resident of IN. Basically they want to make sure they get their $$$$. I tried searching for this, but since it is such a corner case, I was having trouble finding an answer.

Thanks!
