I don't understand all the ins and outs for military personnel. There can be reasons for retaining another state of residence that have nothing to do with CHL, such as maintaining a homestead exemption or the right to vote in the home state.

Duh. I forgot about that.Crossfire wrote:Hmmmm, I don't think it gets much cheaper than FREE. We are talking about an active duty Marine, so Texas waives the license fee.

Re: CHL for a non-texas resident?
He can get a non-resident Texas CHL, but IMO he would be better off getting a Florida license.
Florida is cheaper and easier to get, and some states do not recognize non-resident licenses from other states. IOW, if he were a Florida resident with a Texas license, the Texas license wouldn't be valid in Colorado.
That kind of exclusion may be likely to become more widespread.
