No classrooms, no waiting. Here’s exactly what the process looks like from sign-up to carrying legally.
01
I have personally taken and vetted this online course as an option to take this course online. You will receive your LTC-104 certificate upon completion. This course takes about four hours and is broken down into 15-20 minute lessons. You can take it at your own pace, from anywhere.
02
After you pass the online course, you will be given instructions how to locate a certified Texas handgun instructor in your area. $40-50 is the average price for an assembly line shooting test with 10 students or more all firing at once and firing at commands on a megaphone. This is OK for students that are comfortable around handguns but not for beginners. You can get one on one instruction on the range for 100.00, it’s safer, less nerveracking and stressful and is ideal for newbies.
03
Apply through the Texas DPS handgun licensing website, they will charge you 40.00 for the five-year license to carry in Texas. Upload your LTC-104 certificate, submit your application, and follow the instructions for the 10.00 fingerprinting. Once approved, your Texas License to Carry will be mailed to you. Still not comfortable carrying after getting licensed? Let me provide you with professional, real world carry guidance.
Attention: Ages 18 to 20
Texas adults ages 18–20 who are otherwise eligible may apply for an LTC following a federal court decision in Andrews v. McCraw (2022).
A DPS-approved course that I have personally taken, vetted, and stand behind. Get your LTC-104 certificate from anywhere in Austin, on any device.

Many people complete the LTC process and still don’t feel ready to carry in everyday life. That’s because the course is designed to meet state requirements — not to build real-world comfort and decision-making. That’s the gap I help fill.
If you want more than just a license, I offer coaching designed to help you:
Coaching is available by phone, Zoom, or in person (DFW area).
Personalized guidance on real-world carry, holsters, legal questions, and gun handling.
Custom training for individuals or groups anywhere in Texas. Travel available.

alongside him, he wrote this letter of recommendation about my character and
work ethic.
