CHLPP is a legal services membership organization for concealed handgun licence/permit holders.

Garry Brookman, Euless, Texas - Texas CHL Holder and CHLPP Member since February, 2005: "I was very fortunate to have signed up in February, 2005 to be a CHL Protection Plan member. A few months later, in June, 2005, I was arrested after being involved in a self defense incident. CHLPP was there for me from start to finish of my subsequent nine (9) month ordeal. The lawyers involved in my defense were both competent and knowledgeable. They were successful in getting all charges dismissed, the return of my seized handgun and other properties, reinstatement of my Texas CHL, and the expunction of my arrest record. I paid nothing out of my own personal funds. I easily saved over $25,000 in legal expenses by being a member of the CHL Protection Plan. You can read my entire story in "The Concealed Handgun Manual" by Chris Bird."

Larry Feille, Dallas, Texas - 30 Year Law Enforcement Veteran: "CHL permit holders have the training and go through the background checks in order to be able to carry a concealed handgun. They need to take it to the next level and have the financial the protection for legal expenses that CHL Protection Plan offers."

Fritz Aldrine, Dallas, Texas, Insurance Executive: "I believe that the coverage offered by CHL Protection Plan gives the CHL permit holder peace of mind in today's uncertain world. I highly recommend it to anyone legally carrying a handgun."

Chris Bird, San Antonio, Texas - Texas Concealed Handgun Instructors Assn. President and Author of "The Concealed Handgun Manual" and "Thank God I Had a Gun": "Some people say that carrying a handgun and learning how to use it for self defense is a logical extension of being responsible for your own safety. This school of thought is represented most vocally by the NRA, whose officers and members generally feel that the Second Amendment of the Constitution guarantees Americans the right to bear arms, not just while hunting or target shooting, but for self defense against criminals and against government tyranny."

John Ridlehuber, Lott, Texas - CHL Instructor and Owner of John's Guns, Etc.: "The coverage by CHL Protection Plan gives the CHL holder financial peace of mind if they are involved in a self-defense act. The service that CHL Protection Plan provides can keep an innocent party from becoming wiped out financially."

Mark Wammack, Midlothian, Texas - CHL Instructor, and owner of Maneuvers & Weapons Tactical School: "The liability issue involving a CHL permit holder implicated in a self-defense act is incredible. Even though you are in the right, the potential for financial ruin in defending yourself is there unless you have the appropriate coverage."
