I know there have been LOTS of changes in CHL law(s) over the years, but if I recall correctly, there used to be CHL allowances in PC 46.02....where have they gone and WHERE in PC 46.02 does it make allowances for CHL carry???

from what I remember there used to even be carry allowances for LEO and Commissioned Security in PC 46.02
