My dad got his CHL shortly after you were able to in Texas. He tried to get me and my brother to go with him to the class and get ours also. Neither of us did. My rational was that I could carry in my car, so I didn't need one on me. One day I was in a 7-11 that was being robbed and all I could do was hide behind a chip display. While staring out the window at my car which held my gun with no way of getting to it, I made a promise to myself not to be in that situation again. Luckly, nobody was hurt and the thug ran out with a few dollars, but two weeks later I signed up for my class and the rest is history.
