Concealed Carry Permit
A permit or license that allows you to carry a concealed weapon in public. To obtain a concealed carry permit you must complete the State required training and application. In Texas this license is referred to as a "License to Carry" as of 2015 since Texas allows you to carry openly or concealed. You can take the DPS approved training courses to get started with a licensed course provider like us. To get started simply click one of the "Sign Up, Start Course, or Enroll Now" buttons. They will all lead you to the registration page.
