Crap. I stop by Carswell AFB (now NAS JRB Fort Worth) on occasion. CCW would sure put a damper on unplanned trips.

I thought you could bring guns onto the base. What about those who live on base? I remember the range on base would open up for off duty base personnel on Tuesday late afternoon. A buddy of mine worked with the CATM folks at the range.

PS. I was stationed at Dyess AFB in 91-92, then I got out and worked for Boeing on base. :)

This is one part that concerns me. I try not to have a rigid schedule outside my work schedule. If I feel like going to the grocery or Walmart or visit a friend on a whim, I do so. How do you guys work 30.06 places into your schedule? Do you leave your handgun in your car?

What about printing? Can you get arrested for printing?

Also, have you ever dropped your gun in a restroom because you forgot it was there? Back in my active duty USAF days (before BDUs), when would tuck our fatigue shirts into our fatigue pants. We also tucked the bill of our hats behind us into the waist of our pants when we were indoors. Sure enough someone forgets their hat is there and drops their drawers to do a #2. Splash! Right into the toilet.

Be it a need for different clothing to changing your daily routine, what is it that you don't like about having a CHL and concealed carry?

I'm not trying to stir up a hornet's nest. I'm just trying to see what I should expect when I get to that point.

Edit: I just put my name on the list for a CHL class on June 24.
