There are disqualifiers in CHL law--disqualifiers that deal with infractions at state and county levels--that never come into play for an NICS check or a C&R license.
Just adding my two cents so that others won't think that clearing NICS equals qualified for a CHL.
I think delinquent (Texas) taxes or child support are still deal breakers for a CHL but won't affect NICS.
If you can't pass a NICS check that's a pretty good indication you can't get a CHL (see (a)(9) above)
but passing a NICS check doesn't necessarily mean someone is eligible for a Texas CHL.
