[QUOTE="tak1973, post: 1515886, member: 5499"] A little background: I moved here from TX back in summer of 2009. Transferred my TX CCL from in-state to a non-resident. I took the OK CC class when we moved, but just haven't taken the time to get the license yet. my TX non-resident CCL is good thru 2/2012. I was pulled over today in Owasso for allegedly driving 46 in a 40 MPH zone. Had my licenses and insurance out and ready. Informed him of my weapon and he went back to his car. A few minutes later he calls me back to his car and tells me that I was required to have an OK CCL if I am a resident of OK. He said my TX license (with OK address on it) was no longer valid in OK. I told him I respectfully disagree, and OK honors Texas' non-resident license the same as it would a non-res from Utah, Florida, etc. He stated that I MUST have an OK license to carry in OK if I am a resident. He continued to lecture me about how he was an LEO and knew all the laws. I decided not to press the matter (since he wasn't offering to arrest me) and the conversation moved on to other things. He gave me a warning and a parting word of advice that he didn't really care if I carried or not, since I was 'obviously' one of the 'good guys'. Was he correct about the licensing requirements? When I moved here, I took the class to get myself up to speed on OK's laws. Although the class was not very good; I feel I have a good understanding of the laws. If he is wrong, I am considering informing his superior. If he chooses to pursue an incorrect understanding of the law, he could put his dept in considerable legal trouble. Opinions? [/QUOTE]
