Hello everyone,
My name is Omar & I'm a new member to this forum, I just sent in my CHL documents on Friday I'm proud to be a part of this forum & I hope to meet my forum brothers soon... I'm a store director working for El Rancho Supermarket & the reason I got my CHL & decided to carry a gun around was because my life & the lives of my family were threated, & at that point a Police officer sat down with me & adviced me to do this, & I honestly never felt safer. I will be on this forum to ask a lot of question being that I never owned a gun before today!!

Welcome. I'm sure you will find members here kind and helpful.
There are a few things that you will want to know. I'll start the list with the first one and let others add to the list if they so desire.
1. You do not need nor do you want a CHL badge.

Thx buddy, well when I went to purchase a gun & I held the glock 17 for the 1st time I loved the way it felt in my hand & I tested a similar glock 17 & scored a 239 from 250 on a B-27 I knew it was the one for me, also I love how easy it is to take apart & clean it!!
