For many responsible gun owners in Texas, obtaining a Texas License to Carry (LTC) is an important step toward responsible firearm ownership. While Texas allows permitless carry, the LTC still provides several legal advantages and demonstrates a commitment to safety, training, and understanding the law.
Today, getting your LTC has become more convenient than ever, thanks to online training courses that allow students to complete the classroom portion at their own pace.
Why Get a Texas License to Carry?
Even though Texas has constitutional carry, the LTC still provides several benefits that many responsible gun owners choose to pursue.
Some of the key advantages include:
• Reciprocity with many other states when traveling
• Simplified firearm purchases in some situations
• Stronger legal recognition of your training and knowledge of the law
• Ability to carry in certain locations where permitless carry may not apply
• Demonstrating responsible and trained firearm ownership
An LTC also shows a personal commitment to understanding Texas law, safe firearm handling, and responsible carry practices.
The Convenience of Online LTC Training
Residents in Lubbock and the surrounding West Texas area can now complete the classroom portion of their Texas LTC training entirely online.
An online LTC course allows students to:
• Complete the course from home at their own pace
• Pause and resume training whenever needed
• Study the Texas laws governing the use of force and deadly force
• Learn firearm safety fundamentals and conflict de-escalation
• Prepare for the official LTC written exam
Once the online classroom portion is complete, students will receive a certificate needed to schedule the range proficiency portion with a qualified instructor.
What You Will Learn in an LTC Course
A quality Texas LTC course covers far more than just shooting. Students receive training on several critical topics, including:
• Texas firearm laws and legal responsibilities
• The lawful use of force and deadly force
• Safe firearm handling and storage
• Situational awareness and conflict avoidance
• Non-violent dispute resolution
The goal is not simply to teach people how to shoot, but to train responsible citizens who understand when force is legally justified and when it is not.
Completing the Range Qualification
After finishing the online classroom portion, students must complete a range proficiency demonstration with a certified instructor.
This includes:
• Demonstrating safe firearm handling
• Shooting a state-required qualification course
• Showing basic firearm competency
Once completed, the instructor will provide the necessary documentation to submit your application to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
