I've only been pulled over once since I've had my CHL (or in the past 6 years, for that matter), and it was by a DPS lady officer a few blocks from the Capitol downtown. It was uneventful other than my expression of disbelief at her claim that I was going 50 in a 35 - there was NO way... she didn't have an actual clock on me, only that she went 50 to catch up to me, at which point she was closing distance (I may have been going upwards of 41 at best, according to my speedometer, which I check the accuracy of often), I turned on my interior red lights (which had the nice effect that maglights weren't being shined into the interior of my vehicle or face) and handed her my licenses and insurance. She simply asked "do you have your gun with you?" to which I replied "yes, ma'am" and that was all I heard about it. We briefly discussed why she pulled me over, and then she went and ran my plates/license while her partner stood around in front of my vehicle. She waved on what I recall as 4 or 5 APD cars during that few minutes who stopped to assist, then gave me a warning and ended with a "Thank you for the courtesy".

Overall, a good experience, which falls in line with every other experience I've had with DPS officers. The only difference is that this was the only DPS stop in my life (4 total) where I haven't received a ticket.
