There's a rumble that DPS is dropping CHL's as a budget matter. Obviously some of us might like to keep ours for: 1. Reciprocity, 2. Easy purchase without form 4473. Couple of questions: Interactions with police ARE going to change. How will "notification" of a police officer be effected once they do not have the database in their computers? Until now they already know if we are legal to carry and behave accordingly. How are things going to change at gun shows? Right now it has pretty much been, "you got a CHL? ok good to go". 3. How many suppressor manufacturers have opened a Texas facility in your neighborhood this week (just asking for a friend).
