Online Course $49: Your First Step Toward LTC
In Texas, permitless carry (aka “constitutional carry”) means you can legally carry a handgun in public without a License to Carry (LTC). So why bother getting one? Because when it comes to legal protection, location access, and law enforcement interactions, having an LTC still delivers major advantages.
Legal Advantages: An LTC isn’t just a certificate—it’s legal armor.
- Can carry in more places (some businesses and campuses honor LTC only)
- Enjoy affirmative legal defenses if ever involved in a self-defense incident
- Are perceived as trained and responsible by police and prosecutors
Law Enforcement Confidence: Having an LTC sends a strong signal to law enforcement. This can shift tone in traffic stops or other encounters, reducing tension and keeping interactions smooth.
- You’ve passed a background check
- You’ve completed safety and legal training
- You’re documented, not anonymous
Reciprocity & Travel: Planning to carry outside Texas? Permitless carry ends at the state line. LTC helps you cross it safely. Your LTC opens doors.
- Recognized by 30+ states
- Protects you from missteps in more regulated regions
- Saves you from having to re-learn laws state by state
Training = Confidence: Sure, anyone can carry—but without proper education, it’s risky.
- Covers real-world scenarios
- Explains deadly force laws and how to stay within them
- Teaches de-escalation and responsible decision-making
Clarity Beats Confusion: Permitless carry is legal. LTC is smart. They’re not mutually exclusive—they’re complementary.
