Re: CHL requirements

The fees+class costs in Texas are already higher than most states. Kind of sounds like you want a system like CA or NY where only the privileged/special/connected can get a permit to exercise their constitutional right.

It is my understanding that most self defense shootings are very close range. Raising the minimum score would have the effect of requiring people to be accurate further out, which may not be realistic. Further, how indicative is shooting under the calm and controlled conditions of a range of the ability to perform in a life threatening situation?

I think you might get somewhere talking about requiring or encouraging more training, but the idea of raising fees or further restricting who can get a chl is elitist and disgusting. "common sense" is really an awful justification for any law.
