Coincidentally, on that same date...four of my family members and one friend will be taking the CHL course as well. So we know of at least 6 more CHL's joining the ranks that day. :thumbs2:

I am pleased to see more young folks getting their CHL, the (under 30 crowd) seems to be a fast growing group among CHL's lately.

Glad to have you aboard.


Flint.

Cool man. As far as the younger people getting more into it.....with the way the world is today, I feel the need to be able to protect myself. Legally. And, I feel that the course will be educational, beyond just allowing me to carry.

Anyways. I'd been considering taking the CHL course for some time, and started asking about it on DFWS, and recieved lots of helpful advice, and encouragement. And now here I am, on TexasCHLforum.com. Very nice site.

I'll be taking the class the 24th of this month. I'm both excited and apprehensive, but the excitement outweighs the apprehension.

I've been into handguns for a while, currently the proud owner of an XD .45 5" Tactical model, and an XD .357 SIG 4"
Also, a Smith & Wesson 22A1 .22 pistol (plinking for cheap) and a Mossber Model 88 Maverick 12 gauge pump.

I try to go to the range once a week, sometimes I have to stretch it to once every other week. I believe in proficiency with my firearms. I'm also religious about cleaning them.

If anyone wants to know anything about me, feel free to ask.

Glad ya could make it over from DFW Stangs. I hope ya enjoy the website.
