The so-called "loophole in the Texas CHL law" is also an option, at least for now, it's comparable to the "gunshow loophole" so often parroted by anti-2nd types - ie: private sales without NICS.

The so-called "gun show loophole" isn't a loophole. The law is specifically written to exempt individuals from compliance with the rules and strictures placed upon FFLs. So the loophole in the Texas CHL law is not comparable to the so-called gun show loophole. The former is codified in the law. The latter is absent from the law. Texas law is completely silent regarding Texas residents obtaining a non-resident license from another state and then using that license to avoid obtaining a Texas CHL. But if people keep pushing the point, the legislature will almost certainly close that loophole by requiring that Texas residents obtain a Texas CHL to carry in Texas.
