Description
*** Attention! New "Beat the Heat July/August hours with early and mid-morning classes. ***
This is the required shooting qualification for Texas LTC applicants.
This *IS NOT* a "How to Shoot" class. You must already:
- Know the Four Rules of Firearm Safety
- Be able to efficiently and safely load, unload and clear your firearm
- Be able to competently and safely shoot a 13"x 19" sheet of paper at 3 yds, 7 yds and 15 yds with moderate time pressure.
The Texas Department of Public Safety requires LTC Instructors to provide a minimum of 1-2 hrs of shooting instruction along with the LTC Qualification. Your course registration fee includes this range instruction and the shooting test. To apply for the Texas LTC you must also complete a separate Official Texas License to Carry Classroom course before submitting your application.
Before the test will receive light coaching on your grip, body position and sight picture. You will be given a chance to work with a timer, and you will shoot at 3, 7 and 15 yds. You will be expected to demonstrate safe and proficient use of your handgun. This instruction DOES NOT INCLUDE teaching you how to shoot your gun. You should know how to shoot, be safe and competent when you arrive. Students who fail to demonstrate adequate knowledge or safety *WILL NOT* be allowed to take the test. LTC 2 takes place entirely at East Texas Rifle & Pistol Club.
