Yep, anything is possible. I, personally, have NEVER heard of anyone ever federally charged with this offense. If you're stopped for a speeding or other infraction in a school zone I highly doubt that the city police officer would then call the feds to charge you with breaking this silly law.

Also, how would the officer even know I am carrying since we are NOT required to disclose this by Texas statute.

Back to the topic about Utah's non resident CHL. Back in the late 90's I went through the hoops and got my Texas CHL. When I moved to Nevada I got my Nevada permit and a Utah non resident permit because it was our next door neighbor and I went there frequently. At that time, Utah did not recognize the Nevada permit.

Now I'm back in Texas. I'm a resident, but my family and home are still in Nevada (until we get the darn house sold..14 months and counting). I drive on my Nevada DL and I have my Nevada CHL for carry purposes as I really don't have a permanent Texas residence.

When we finally get the house sold and buy our home here I will change the address on my Utah CHL and NOT obtain a Texas permit. Why? Because I've passed two states permit classes, attended renewal classes, and I'm done! Since Texas recognizes my Utah permit (not to mention my Nevada permit) I see no reason at all to go through the hoops, pay the exhorbitant fees, wait for months, to exercise a "right" that I already have, as granted by the great states of Utah and Nevada AND recognized by the Lone Star state.

No I am not "gaming" the system. I am following it.
