While speaking with the instructor, I mentioned that while I was waiting to have my Texas CHL processed, I would be carrying using an out of state carry permit. He told me not to do this because Texas would not honor any of my out of state permits/licenses since I am now a Texas resident. He said the Texas state legislature just passed that law this year, and it went into effect September 1.
Perhaps you should drop your instructor a friendly email, so that this mistaken information is not told to another student. It's not as if he's trying to encourage Texas CHLs over out-of-state licenses, as he already had you signed up for class when this issue arose. He might also tell students the same while in the actual course, causing people to not carry legally while waiting for the Texas plastic to arrive.G.A.
