The Texas LTC takes two things. A classroom course, and a proctored 50-round shooting qualification. Most outfits do one or the other, then send you hunting for someone to finish the job. We do both, and the range half happens on our private outdoor facility with a DPS-certified instructor working one-on-one with you.
Our online License to Carry class is self-paced and works on any device. Knock it out in one sitting or spread it over a week. You finish with the LTC-101 certificate the state requires with your application.
One of our DPS-certified instructors works your fundamentals first, then proctors the qualification: 50 rounds at 3, 7, and 15 yards, 70% to pass. Most people fail at the 15-yard line. You will not, because you will have spent the first hour fixing exactly that. No indoor lane, no shared range, no waiting your turn.

The classroom portion is straightforward. The shooting test is where people get surprised, and it is almost always the 15-yard line that does it. Two hours of real coaching before you shoot for score is the difference between passing on day one and paying to retest.
No. Bring yours if you have one. If not, we provide one. Gear is billed separately.
Once you pass the proficiency test, the paperwork goes to DPS. Processing typically runs 60 to 90 days, and you will be fingerprinted as part of the application.
Yes. The LTC-101 certificate from the classroom course is required before the qualification counts. Buy them in either order, but complete the course first.
Most people should. The LTC standard is a legal minimum, not a competence standard. See private firearms training or what concealed carry training actually covers.
