German restaurant up from Firing Line is good, but go just a tad farther to Dale's for an awesome burger...dripping and huge...

When I got my CHL earlier this year, I was very pleased to see that "veteran" in red lettering was front and center on the license.

And yes, Texas knows how to honor and take care of its veterans. NY, where I came from, wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire as a veteran. Total lack of respect ...

gPrimary is LC9, but go with a S&W air weight .38 every once in awhile. Have a Springfield 1911 .45 RO that i LOVE, so am investigating if it's feasible to carry a .45 cap concealed. My usual wear is shorts and a colored tshirt, or khakis and a polo, so not sure how that will work.

I'm left handed and when driving access to my IWB weapon (a Ruger LCP) is pretty difficult and constricted. i was thinking about wearing the IWB holster on my right side and cross drawing. Any opinions? Thanks in advance.
