I just got finished talking with a DPD, Love Field Unit LEO and he was unsure of how to handle it if he came across it. When he runs you and his screen updates that you have a CHL, he will ask if you are "carrying" or "armed" and if you say no, but I have one in my glove box he feels this is okay. He's going to run the question up the flag pole and see what he is told.
His comment was that if you have it concealed in your car then MPA should take over but he knows some LEOs feel that once you have a CHL, if you have "access" to a gun, then you better have your CHL with you.

Limbo Status
A thought just occurred to me...
What happens during that short time between manufacture pending and receiving it in the mailbox if you get pulled over, have a gun in your car. Are you still covered under the MPA and the CHL doesn't apply? Is the LEO going to know this or understand?
