Valid points RickB and LarryArnold.

Depends on what is reported and how it is handled. If say a person committed a crime and did not have weapon or CHL on him the license would not be yanked on the sport. And the officer or agency then has to submit paperwork to DPS to start the revocation process. I wonder how many officers would take the time to submit the paperwork on what most would seem minor offences. I wonder how long it would take DPS to catch the fact that someone with a CHL has committed one. Sure they would probably catch it when the renewal time came, but are active searches done regularly for holders?

The CHL is not a catch all for background checks for employers in my opinion. You can be issued CHL after 5 years of being convicted of a class A or B misdemeanor.

I, as an employer, would be more then interested in then just the 5 years back that the CHL requires. < Provided any crimes were reported :wink: > And a CHL background check deals with criminal matters. The type of background checks that a lot of employers use also include financial history as well if there is any handling of cash or high value items.

I just see where the CHL wouldn't fit all that I need in a check. Just stating a different view on things. And both have holes that we could argue circles around I am sure.

And decent sort of back ground check with show you have a CHL. It is public record. So if the company is anti-gun and does a background check they are going to know up front.

And with the 4 year renewals there could be all kinds of problems crop up between license and renewal that could be problems for employers that would be missed if the CHL was used. Things that would not revoke the license, but me as a manager would not like to see in a possible employee. Petty theft charges as one example.
