Re: Trooper at DPS office says no need to show CHL

So no, you did not have to, but only because you were not carrying. If you were carrying, then by law, you were required to show your CHL. Guess the officer doesn't know it, but we've seen examples of plenty of officers not knowing the law on this forum already.

You did the right thing IMO :)

Better a "I didn't need to see that" then them typing in your DL# into the computer, and getting the Red 'CHL HOLDER" on their screen, without you telling them.
:iagree: and would have done the exact same thing. Good job.
