Learn Gun Laws
The Texas LTC gives legal protections and multiple benefits when carrying a gun in Texas. Not only are there advantages within Texas law for having an LTC, the online class also covers material that every gun owner is responsible to know and is crucial to be aware of. Permitless carry, or constitutional carry, does not effect the LTC in Texas. Every responsible gun owner should still have an LTC for the reasons listed above.
The LTC class covers Texas laws and regulations surrounding guns and carrying a handgun. This class does not teach how to carry a gun, what equipment to select, or how to draw the gun from a concealed holster.
​
Simple Steps to Get Your LTC
1. Take the LTC Classroom Training
The class is a total of 4 hours, required by Texas DPS. You will be issued an LTC-100 certificate immediately upon completion.​
2. Proficiency Demonstration
After the classroom training portion, Texas DPS requires every student to complete the proficiency demonstration. This consists of the shooting qualification and range instruction with an LTC instructor.
3. Application and Fingerprinting
Once the training is completed, the online application (through DPS) and fingerprinting (Identigo) is completed. DPS will mail your license to you once completed!
