I have read that now you no longer have to do shooter proficiency in order to obtain you chl. Is it true that you can now take an online course and submit your application for chl without ever leaving your home? Kind of scary

If it is true, that's not good at all.
back when we used to eat housecats we marinated them in louisiana hot sauce and soy sauce then season them with lemon pepper........then onto the grill slow cooking them 3 hours........excellent folded in tortillas and pico de gallo----Newgulf

This is not correct. You do not have to take the shooting proficiency for a renewal, but it is still required for the initial license. However, I have seen folks who didn't even know how to load their firearm pass the proficiency exam, so I feel it is pretty worthless anyway.

Kind of scary I think you might be confusing the CHL with the new hunters education requirements. They did remove the field portion of the hunters education process.

Here you go:
House Bill 48
Effective: Sept. 1, 2013
Relating to the procedure where a person may renew a CHL.
Eliminates the requirements for CHL holders to complete a renewal course, or demonstrate proficiency, to renew the license.
CHL holders will continue to have an option to submit the renewal application online.
CHL may be renewed for up to one year after expiration. There is no grace period for continuing to carry, once the CHL has expired.

Definitely not true. Shooting requirement is still absolutely required for a new license. They just shortened the class from 10 hours to 4-6.

Any changes that reduce qualification standards could result in other states not honoring Texas CHL licensees.

I am a CHL instructor and nothing has changed for new applicants other then the amount of classroom hours. They still take a written test and must show their proficiency with a firearm. Renewals are done online without shooting (huge Mistake by legislatures) but it is what it is. I encourage all my students to do some sort of qualification so there is a paper trail record in case they get sued in the event they have to protect themselves. The NSA and SA classifications are no more everyone is SA weather you use a revolver of Semi Auto now.
