Point Taken. I have been studying the codes more while I'm still waiting, but I also think beyond just what the law states. For instance, if I were to have just one drink in me, and were forced to use force against someone, what kind of effect is that going to have on a grand jury or civil jury? There may be certain allowances in the law regarding the alcohol and guns, but does that mean that I'd be scott free at the end of the ordeal? I think it's still just a better idea to leave the alcohol alone period when carrying. Laws or not, I just don't see any good coming from it.

My instructor heavily stressed that there is absolutely no minimum limit for a CHL While carrying. And that If you choose to carry and are suspected of haveing a drink(whether or not you're intoxicated) that it was cause to draw blood for a BAC over a breathalizer. So according to his suggestions, lock that puppy up somewhere in your vehicle so that there is absolutely no doubt that it is not on or about or accessible by you at all. So essentially, what I got out of it, was even having one drink While carrying was cause enough for unwanted trouble. And in today's society, with all these restrictions and laws, drinking anywhere outside your home just isn't worth it anymore.
