LTC HANDGUN TRAINING COURSE DESCRIPTION
Registration was $105 now $84.
It is preferred, but not required. We have a limited number of handguns available for rental/use for a fee of $25 for the qualification course. First come, first served.
The proficiency evaluation/qualification course requires 50 rounds of ammunition. Reloads are prohibited You must pass the qualification course of fire in three attempts. Bring extra ammo if you suspect you may need more than one qualification attempt.
We have 9mm and 40 caliber pistol ammunition in stock for $35/box of 50 rounds.
Camp Barkeley has a rich history... At it's peak, it was the largest (approx. 70,000 booming acres) and most important U.S. Army Infantry training facility in the entire United States in the early 1940s. Under General Patton, US Troops literally left Camp Barkeley and went to liberate concentration camps in Germany in WWII. The current venue is just over 1000 acres of the original Camp Barkeley with some of the original buildings and artifacts still intact. The view of Abilene to the north from the top of the hill is incredible.
Camp Barkeley is just a short drive south of Abilene between Buffalo Gap and View. The address, a map, and helpful instructions will be provided in your registration confirmation emails. Finding the venue/getting there is probably the most difficult part of the class! :D But totally doable. ; )
There will not be a lunch break, per se, due to the distance away from town and time considerations. Plan to bring drinks and snacks to keep you satiated during the day.
Range appropriate clothing (long pants and no open-toe footwear) is required, plus you will need eye and ear protection. Weather considerations should also be made for the outdoor proficiency portion. There is a small covering at the handgun range, but students will move out from under the cover to complete the course of fire, rain or shine, heat or cold. All of the classroom portion will be indoors in a climate controlled environment. Wise Covid precautions will be made, but masks will be at the students' discretion.
Each student must pass the 50 round proficiency evaluation in three attempts, or another qualification attempt will have to be scheduled on a different day at the student's expense. NO ONE has not passed in our classes, and we even have a very comfortable .22 caliber pistol for second or third attempts if that helps. ($25 handgun rental fee applies)
Holsters will not be used/allowed during the proficiency evaluation/qualification course.

The Texas License to Carry course is the FIRST step in securing the ultimate gift of peace-of-mind. The TX LTC course (PREVIOUSLY "CHL") is still the most secure protection for the legal ability to be armed away from your home/business/vehicle and prepared to protect you and/or your family in the worst of self-defense scenarios, and when it matters most.

It is a defense to prosecution that upon possessing a handgun at the screening checkpoint for the secured area of an airport, one has their valid TX LTC and immediately exits the secure area when notified to do so.
(It will be much easier to post "no gun" signs under permitless carry versus the stricter requirements under 30.06/30.07)
