LTC stands for License to Carry, and such a license was once required in order to carry in the State of Texas.
Ever since the constitutional carry law passed in September of 2021, Texas law allows anyone to carry without a permit for as long as they meet a certain requirement.
Though permits are no longer required in Texas, it is strongly encouraged to apply for one. Its extremely cost effective and removes a lot of restrictions.
Conceal Carry Academy hands down provides the best Texas Online LTC Class.
Getting a License to Carry has become very easy in recent years ever since Texas DPS LTC allowed for online classes to take place.
Now, you do not need to sit in a 6-hour class and get flooded with information and things you need to know non-stop.
With online classes, the entire 4-hour class is broken into several 15–20-minute video modules which you can watch at your own pace. After finishing one module, you can continue to the next or come back another time as progress is saved.
This is really convenient as you can space out the whole course in a manner which suits you and you can watch each module when you have free time, saving you more time in the long run.
Because the Texas License to Carry class can be taken online, that means you can do it from the comfort of your own home, or anywhere else you want. As long as you have a device with a screen and a stable internet connection, you can virtually go anywhere and complete the modules.
Also, there are a few qualifications an applicant must first meet before being eligible to take the course.
In general, you must be 21 years of age, pass a background check and have a clean criminal record.
If you have committed a class A or B misdemeanor or a felony, you more than likely do not qualify for an LTC permit.
These are just general rules, Contact Us or Texas DPS for more information.
