The only things that might disqualify you from a Texas CHL, which wouldn't disqualify you from a reciprocal state's license, would be owing back taxes, back child support, in arrears on student loans, etc. It would take some digging for a Texas LEO to discover that you're not qualified for a Texas CHL, and then a lot of work to prosecute you for the misdemeanor offense of UCW. And it would probably be an unsuccesful prosecution, at that, since the subject held a valid license recognized by Texas.

One of my shooting buddies had a Texas CHL which was revoked after
he was arrested for a incident related to carrying while DWI. My understanding of the situation is that he made a plea bargain with the DA in which the DWI charges were dropped, but he had to plead guilty to UCW. Not too long after his Texas CHL was revoked he applied for and received a non-resident CHL from Florida. Do you think the state of Texas will have an issue with him carrying on his Florida CHL?
