Great, please show me where that law is so I know.

GC §411.205. REQUIREMENT TO DISPLAY LICENSE. (a) If a license
holder is carrying a handgun on or about the license holder's
person when a magistrate or a peace officer demands that the license
holder display identificatio
n, the license holder shall display both the license
holder's driver's license or identification certificate issued by the
department and the license holder's handgun license.

I see no requirement to display your CHL if you're not carrying.

Re: Required Presentation of CHL when NOT Carrying?

I'm scratching my head at this one as well :headscratch

The penalty for not showing your CHL was removed, and prior to that it was not a felony...someone please correct me if I'm wrong here.

I have no idea what the Grapevine officer was referencing if he said that.
