TexasCHLforum.com

Thank you, kindly. I've been reading this forum now for 2 days and can already tell I came to the right place. Nice, friendly members, sound advice and a willingness to help answer the questions of the now "soon to be CHL holder". I'm increasingly excited to take my class on Saturday - not so that I can find a bad guy to nail; but, for the many reasons already stated -it's my right as a citizen of this great state, and I'm choosing to exercise that right.

Much appreciated.

Thanks for your reply. I will take the class this Saturday and then carry when I feel up to it (and comfortable).

I've been shooting all forms of firearms for about 15 years now. I've always had an interest in obtaining my CHL, but just haven't ever "pulled the trigger". I have the opportunity to take the course this Saturday; I'm having second thoughts now on if I want to spend the money to proceed. Have any of you gone through the same back-and-forth?

I don't work in a "bad" area and my job doesn't come with the need to carry. I've always just had the desire to exercise this right as a Texas citizen I guess. Not even sure I'll carry on my person that often; mostly in the vehicle(s). Is it worth the money if I'm not going to carry that often? I'm a pretty slim guy and wear fitted (tailored) clothing so I'm concerned about printing as well.

Any advice for a first-time poster?

Thanks in advance.
