It might be SOP for base LEOS to check their database of people permitted to drive on the base against the DPS database of CHL/LTC holders.JonnySW wrote:I assumed when plates were ran it did. When i entered Shepard AFB in my truck, the lady at the guard check asked me if i was carrying my concealed weapon on me. I said, "wow you can see that i have a CHL", she laughed and changed the subject. I assume they got it off the plates. Who knows, its the govt, lol.
Or.....
It might be one of those trick questions like "do you still beat your wife", which is calculated to elicit an informative reaction for the LEO's benefit. Either answer: "I don't have a CHL" or "How did you know?" gives away your status with regard to having a license and gun on you.
(I say LEO, because I really don't know what the security personnel at your base are called.)
