Benefits of an LTC
There are several benefits to having a Texas License to Carry (LTC), even with the recent law change allowing constitutional carry. Here are some of the key advantages:
- More Places to Carry: An LTC allows you to carry concealed in some places that are off-limits to those carrying without a license. This includes businesses that choose to allow it, certain government buildings, nursing homes, hospitals, amusement parks and within 1,000 feet of a school (for dropping off or picking up children).
- Trespass Protection: An LTC provides trespass protection when carry past certain (no carry) signs. With an LTC you must be givin the oppotunity to leave the premises before you are in violation of the law.
- Reciprocity with Other States: A Texas LTC is recognized by a large number of other states, allowing you to legally carry a concealed handgun while traveling. This can be a major benefit for those who travel outside of Texas.
- Expedited Firearm Purchases: Having an LTC can streamline the background check process when purchasing a firearm from a licensed dealer. They dealer is not required to run a NICS background check.
- Legal Protection: An LTC demonstrates that you have undergone firearms training and education on Texas gun laws. This can be helpful in a self-defense situation, potentially offering some legal advantages.
- School Employee Rights: For employees of school districts, an LTC grants the right to store a concealed firearm and ammunition in a locked vehicle parked on school grounds. School districts in Texas can not prohibit this.
- College Campus Carry: An LTC allows you to carry on the campus of a college including inside buildings and classrooms.
- Knowledge and Responsibility: The LTC application process includes mandatory education on firearms safety and the law. This can make you a more responsible and informed gun owner.
