The legendary Texas DPS processing delays were one of the reasons I got mine from Florida. Not only quicker, but cheaper and easier and no 10 hour class.
Wow. That makes me really glad I got mine from Florida instead.HGWC wrote:To me, just the mere fact that we are flagged to every police officer as CHL holders, and potentially armed, puts us at heightened risk of harassment, search and seizure, and false arrest. I'm inclined to worry more about that than courtesy to a cop who is most likely about to give me at least a $150 ticket. It makes more sense to me not to give a police officer any reason to believe that you are actually in possession of a firearm. Courtesy be damned. It's none of his business.
