There has been lots of speculation... :thumbs2:
We are gonna need a shorter name..... :shock:
I was thinking of this acronym thing just yesterday, in particular thinking that "CHL holder" really ought to have some sort of catchy phrase. You know, like California Highway Patrol has CHiPs. But CHaLs just doesn't sounds as good so I was branching out and looking for other options and that's how I came across this great acronym creator.

It seems like we can come up with names for these and any other common phrases used around here. Might I suggest that we start with the consideration of Legions: LEague of Gunners who Intentionally pOst Noncompliant Signs?

Neat acronym creator.
I've been playing around with the words "Concealed Handgun License Holder", although I keep coming up with acronyms full of letters not even in that phrase. :shock:

Do you know of a way to make that acronym creator give only words that only contain letters contained in the specified phrase? :tiphat:

Why are you making this so hard? Any military officer that works in a headquarters administration on staff is an expert at concocting ridiculous acronyms :smilelol5:

That's a neat idea. I've also been thinking that a special James Bond type greeting would be cool if we ever saw someone we thought might be a fellow CHL and hopefully a forum member.

So far, the legions are posting spit cans so the lethal force can exercise their 2A rights in places that management thinks they can't, and a secret hi sign and shake includes the phrase, "It is a chair?"

Any additions or amendments? I'd suggest that lethal is not the best choice for CHL holders because of the negative implications. Something sunshiney and peaceful that implies one hopes not to use the concealed handgun (hey! there's a phrase needing a good cover word, too) would be better for PR, don't you think?

How about these for concealed handgun?

LAD / LADy: Legal/Licensed And concealeD. I had my lad (or my lady) at 4:00 and the man was standing at 2:00 and didn't notice.
CANDLE: Concealed AND LEgal. I can't believe I was in the middle of a storm and didn't have any candles in sight! I'm a candle-bearer now and always keep the candle burning bright!
CHANge: Concealed HANdgun
CANDy: Concealed hANDgun. I never leave the house without a little candy (or a little change) in my pocket.
COuCH: COnCealed Handgun. "It is a chair?" "No, it's a couch."
LunCH: Legally Concealed Handgun. I picked up my lunch and headed out the door.



I kinda like candle-bearer for CHL holder. The symbolism of candles (underground railway, a light in the darkness, etc) is kinda neat.

Along the lines of "friends of Bill W."

Are you a friend of CHarLes?

Note the CHL and the reference to a certain Charles, who could he be? :biggrinjester:

I remember this from a post about Bill W. from awhile ago.
