There's nothing to flame you with, I understand your point. Trying to stick to the main premise of this thread and not the notion of constitutional carry, I'll only state that getting a UT is less of a way of curtailing the TX licensing and more of a way to get more "bang" for your buck. It's like shopping for the best deal. If I can purchase a CHL that has reciprocity in 26 states or purchase a more expensive one that has reciprocity in only 8 or so, I'd choose the first for obvious reasons. Getting a UT CHL isn't about skirting the laws in TX, I see it more as TX isn't competitive enough with the product they are offering. After all is said and done, I'll have to get a TX CHL to carry concealed. I had considered the UT for the reasons I just stated - more bang for my buck.
At this point, an out of State Utah would have less States than a resident TX CHL. 6 less IIRC. Just an interesting fact.
