I had no idea that we have so many CHLers who (with a straight face and varied rationalizations) actually support the idea of carrying a badge.

It's scary...

I would hope displaying such an I.D. carrier to an LEO might raise his eyebrows and motivate a search for illegal "law enforcement only" items in said goobers possession - cuz if he's asinine enough to carry such an I.D. what else might he be capable of carrying?

Yeah, I know that's a stretch...

More likely, any LEO coming across such a ludicrous I.D. setup would probably only elicit howls of laughter from him!

Sportsmans Guide catalog is selling this dubious item: A leather folder style wallet: One side holds your "Concealed Weapon Permit" BADGE and the other holds your (in Texas) CHL.

The market verbiage states: Get this official, law-abiding folding Permit Holder especially if you are packing concealed heat. (oh brother...) It's quick identification and LOOKS IMPRESSIVE!

Some of their other sale items come with copy using words like "Ops".

"Ops", huh?

How does this questionable abbreviation fit into the life of the sportsman or is this publication targeting laughable soldier of fortune wannabe's?

There must be a market for these items, but I don't know anyone being enough of a goober to buy one.

Do you?
