I certainly appreciate the responses. It's given me somewhat to consider. For the sake of clarity, when I use the phrase 'contact' I was referring to official rather than social interaction. As far as being investigated is concerned, I want an attorney. Period. It might drag things out a bit more, but the alternative can be way more costly. The law has long since gone beyond anything a layman can deal with alone. Thanks for the info!

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding has been that if you come into contact with a LEO you are supposed to identify yourself as a CHL holder. As it was explained to me, this was to prevent any unwanted reactions by the officer during the course of the contact should he observe you to be armed. I may have misunderstood this as a requirement vs a recommendation. Living in the countryside, most of the local LEO are at least familiar enough to where I don't have to worry much about it. However I do have to travel through Houston on a monthly basis, so I would feel better to know for sure. Thanks!
