TexasCHLforum.com

This is a perennial topic on every gun board, especially when someone new to CHL and the board joins. I had thought for awhile we could use a FAQ, so after I saw the last version of this, I did a quick search and copied the URLs. I may have missed some. Some of these touch on the issue only tangentially.

If nothing else, when I see the next question I will have a quick link to give the poster to get him started down the path trod by so many before him.

Of course, all these links together and $3.50 are worth a basic cup of coffee at Starbucks, where last I heard you can concealed carry without problem. IANAL, YMMV, ROFL, enjoy.

OH BY THE WAY... if you find another link and want to add it, reply/post to this. Otherwise, I don't really intend this to be the new locus for why you should or should not talk to the kops, stay or runaway, and all that. Not that I can really stop it, but ...

I'm doing that right now, although my cup of coffee wasn't nearly that expensive.

I'll brew my own for that price.

Thank you, ELB, for taking your time to create this list of this type of threads. This will be an excellent resource, especially for new members.

sticky!

"What do I do or say after defending myself?"

How about - "Hold still while I put in a fresh mag." ?

SIA

Updated OP to add "After the fact...."

Thank you for such a great set of links, now i am brain drained from the reading.
does make one feel better if most of what you read, goes along with what you were taught during class

the tape loop is practiced often while doing drills at the range

Glad you liked it.

I personally believe this link should also be on the list:

Actually, it is -- since that post (your post) is part of the thread Why you shouldn't talk to the police, which is on list above, in the OP. Your post is a very good one to be singled out, but trying to single out the "best" posts of all those threads was way more time than I want to spend -- it took long enough just to come up with the threads!

I think after a clean shoot one shoot have a good cliche prepped to tell the bg such as "not so fast!" or "gotcha haha"

How about, "Oops!"?
