Why should I still get a Texas LTC? No question yes. Texas passed permitless carry also called constutional carry in 2021. The law, House Bill 1927, went into effect on September 1, 2021, allowing most Texans over 21 to carry handguns without a permit. While it is a great step forward it does come with limitations and restriction that you don’t have with a license to carry.
Under permitless carry you can’t carry in as many places as those with a LTC. You also have to obey literally ANY “no gun” type sign posted on businesses. LTC holders can ignore all of these signs. There are many other benefits too.
Trespass Protection
A person carrying with a license to carry has trespass protection under Texas state law. If a LTC holder carry into a place that has a prohibited carry sign posted we can’t be charged, they have to give us the option to leave the building first.
A person carrying under the permitless carry law can be charged immedietly because they will NOT get the option to leave the building first. This is a HUGE benefit for getting the LTC.
Places Off Limits
Under Texas permitless carry laws there are places “off limits” by state law that people without a LTC can’t carry in. With a Texas License to carry you would be able to carry in more places with less restrictions. Why deal with restrictions?
Reciprocity With Other States
With a Texas LTC you can carry in 37 states total, this makes traveling easy. Without a Texas license to carry you will lose 22 of these states. You will be limited only to other permitless carry states that allow non residents to carry without a license.
Gun Purchases
With a Texas LTC you bypass the background check when buying firearms from gun shops, stores and firearm shows. For this reason alone, it makes buying fast and easy.
