In the License To Carry classroom portion we will be covering the following:- Firearms Handling and Storage
- Firearms Use
- Lawful Carry and Use of Force
- Non-Violent Dispute Resolution
- Plus additional topics
The complete License to Carry class takes around 6 hours on average to complete depending on the class size.
Where to Start
The easiest and fastest way to gain your Texas License to Carry LTC/CHL is to first start at the Texas DPS website by clicking here: Texas LTC/CHL Program from there you can get valuable information and check that you are eligible. You will also need to pay the necessary dues to the State, and start the back ground check process. It is not necessary that you do that portion before your LTC class. You can take the classroom portion before you register with DPS if you want. But they both must be done before you will get your license. You might be illegible to get a discount from the state if you qualify.
The Texas LTC website will walk you though the whole Texas LTC/CHL process, including the fingerprint appointment. Everything short of the classroom and range potion of the class will be done through that License to Carry website. Once applied they will present to you (email) a check list of every thing you must submit to DPS for your Texas License To Carry. Included in this list is the LTC/CHL-100 which is the Certification of Training, this is where we come in.
You can take the classroom portion at any time.
