We are passionate about empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to handle firearms safely and confidently. Our commitment to excellence and personalized instruction ensures you receive the highest quality training.
Do you need an LTC to carry in Texas?
While Texas does allow constitutional carry, obtaining a License to Carry (LTC) offers several advantages, including reciprocity with other states and a deeper understanding of firearm laws. We recommend discussing your specific needs during our courses.
A firearm must be in a holster to carry in Texas.
Yes, for open carry, a firearm must be carried in a shoulder or belt holster. Our courses cover all these essential legal requirements in detail to ensure you are fully compliant and safe.
What are some common worries or misunderstandings people have about firearms that you'd like to address?
Many people are concerned about accidental discharge or not knowing how to react in a critical situation. We emphasize safe handling, proper storage, and situational awareness to build confidence and dispel common myths surrounding firearm use. Our goal is to make you feel secure and competent.
What age do you need to be to take a firearm safety course?
Generally, there are no minimum age requirements to take a firearm safety course, but specific state laws and course content may vary. For LTC courses in Texas, you typically need to be 21 years old, or 18 if you are active military. Please contact us at [[phonenumber]] or [[email]] for details on specific course requirements.
How long does it take to complete a firearm safety course?
