DWI and CHL
Posted: Tue Feb 18, 2014 8:21 am
Good Day
I have a friend who is interested in obtaining his Texas CHL. He is a certified LEO with me in the Coast Guard. Three and a half years ago, he got a DWI in Washington state. Texas calls for a five year wait from a DWI before you can apply for your CHL if I remember right. Does this requirement apply to offenses in states other than Texas? He is otherwise fully eligible for a Texas CHL. There are more details as to why we Coasties carry CHLs instead of relying on LEOSA but it's not something I'm going to type out on an iPhone.
