Hello I'm new to the forum.

Had a question concerning chl eligibility. In 2007 I was arrested for theft (felony) placed on differed adjudication in march 2008 completed my differed and everything was dismissed. Since then I have purchased 2 handguns and other weapons without any problems. My question is am I eligible for chl???

I have read alot but don't understand it 100 percent yet. All info would really help

Thanks!!!!!

Nope. Ten years from date of adjudication, so you'd be eligible March 2018.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for clearing that up for me... Had just found it weird how Im able to purchase the firearm but not eligible for a chl.... Guess ill have to wait.

You still have a right to defend yourself in your home on your private property.

And you can carry concealed in your vehicle without a CHL

I had a similar case,I went to the court and had them pull my record...no arrest appeared after 10+yrs
