Texas License to Carry (LTC)

While Texas allows eligible individuals to carry a handgun without a license under the Constitutional Carry law, earning a Texas License to Carry (LTC) provides several benefits that go beyond the basics. At Bronze Star Academy, located in Weatherford, Texas, we offer a comprehensive Texas License to Carry course that equips you with the legal knowledge, firearm safety skills, and confidence you need to carry responsibly. Whether you’re new to firearms or an experienced gun owner, obtaining your LTC ensures you are well-prepared and legally protected while carrying a firearm.

Why Take the Texas License to Carry Course?

Even though a license is not required for Constitutional Carry in Texas, an LTC provides significant advantages, including legal protections and access to reciprocity in many other states. By completing the Texas License to Carry course, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of gun laws, improve your firearm handling skills, and learn how to carry safely and confidently in public settings.

Here’s why this course is essential:

• Expanded Legal Protections: Having an LTC gives you greater legal coverage when carrying a firearm. It can offer advantages in legal situations where additional verification of firearm knowledge and safety is important.
• Reciprocity with Other States: If you travel, an LTC allows you to legally carry a handgun in states that have reciprocity agreements with Texas. This can be especially important for frequent travelers who want to ensure they remain compliant with firearm laws outside of Texas.
• Deeper Knowledge of Firearm Laws: The LTC course provides a thorough review of Texas gun laws, including how to navigate carry restrictions, use of force laws, and laws governing carrying in specific locations like schools or government buildings.
