Online Course

A web-based educational program that covers the theoretical aspects of handgun safety, laws, and responsible ownership, and in Texas is a part of the licensing process. In Texas, you are required to complete a 4-6 hour online DPS approved course, like ours. This will be followed by a shooting proficiency exam that will be administered locally.
