Having a drink while carrying is ok. Just don't get intoxicated.
From the Texas DPS chl website:
Texas Penal Code §46.035 states it is unlawful for an individual who is intoxicated to carry a concealed handgun. The Penal Code defines “intoxicated” as not having the normal use of mental or physical faculties by reason of the introduction of alcohol, a controlled substance, a drug, a dangerous drug, a combination of two or more of those substances, or any other substance in the body.
There is no definitive blood alcohol number for when a chl licensee is impaired. Any amount of alcohol combined with concealed carry could result in a bad day. I think most of us on the board believe that.
