Answer #1:

Generally, it is taken on a case by case bases, but something as minor as a CLass B and a PI, it is doubtful. I'm sure they will give you one.

No. You will not receive the CCW license.

What do you think? Knowing that they want only the most stable and reputable to carry concealed weapons on the street. They need to know that those in possession are not putting themselves in places and circumstances that can endanger the public. Your past does not exhibit a strong recognition of the respect for law, the stability or maturity to deal with the level of CCW licensee.

Other issues to consider are that many states require a 'need' to carry a weapon. Do you have such a need? Have you taken the required classes or range time on your own volition to gain the qualifications of meeting the CCW licensing?

Carrying a weapon is a serious endeavor. Not because of the weapon, but because of the personal liability. One error in judgment and not only is someone's life endangered, but also, your personal and families financial well being becomes immediately compromised. It is no minor matter.

Answer #3:

Texas is a shall issue state. Which means if you meet the requirements then they must issue you a license.

From what you have said, you will be denied.

GC §411.172. ELIGIBILITY.
a) A person is eligible for a license to carry a concealed handgun if the person:
(6) is not a chemically dependent person;

(c) An individual who has been convicted two times within the10-year period preceding the date on which the person applies for a license of an offense of the grade of Class B misdemeanor or greater that involves the use of alcohol or a controlled substance as a statutory element of the offense is a chemically dependent person for purposes of this section and is not qualified to receive a license under this subchapter. This subsection does not preclude the disqualification of an individual for being a chemically dependent person if other evidence exists to show that the person is a chemically dependent person.

So you have 3 more years to wait.

Just in case I may have made a mistake, here is a link to the eligibility requirements. Read them and then you will know if you are eligible or not.
