'Loophole' in CHL law??

That's OK. Until the Texas legislature fixes the mess they made, I can tell all my friends to get a cheaper license from another state.

Not only may not like the way it gets fixed but those friends will not know the Texas laws effecting conceal carry. You could have a mad friend because the did not know the law here.

Maybe his friends are smarter than yours.

Maybe all the instructors on this forum are well informed and never confuse their personal opinion with the law, but I think we have to honestly admit there are some Texas instructors out there who are ignorant or intentionally teaching bunk. I'm willing to bet their typical student knows Texas gun laws worse than some VA licensee who took 10 minutes to read this webpage with an open mind.

It is all perspective. Some people no longer consider California to actually be part of the U.S.

Many wish that Texas wasn't part of the US... a whole 'nuther country like Sam Houston arranged for.

In some ways, of course, I am making a virtue of necessity by moving back, out of this socialist hellhole that for former Golden State has become. Virtue is where you find it!
