I know the thread is somewhat evolving. Back to the poster's initial comment.....my view on the value of the CHL w/re to an LEO encounter.

My wife is on the fence on getting her CHL so I've been trying to help her over. This winter I found her an instructor who trains women and holds CHL courses for women.

I met her after the "handgun training class" she offers for women only. In the discussion, she said it is common at least in the N. TX area that a traffic stop for many women ends after the LEO sees the CHL. I'd not heard this before; now this poster makes two. I assume there are many more.

I'm not sure the same is true for men. Often the man's reason for getting the CHL is different from the woman's. Or perhaps it is that statistically, men are the common perpetrators of any offense so the LEO is leery of the male CHL holder. Who knows.
