Comprehensive firearms training led by experienced instructors
✍️By ZRIntel Editorial Team📍Dallas, Texas
Texas Handgun Academy, established in 1995, is a premier firearms training facility located in Dallas, Texas. With over 90,000 students served, the academy offers a wide range of courses designed to empower individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary for personal safety and responsible firearm ownership. The academy's offerings include the Texas License to Carry (LTC) class, which is required to obtain a concealed carry permit in Texas. The LTC class consists of 4-6 hours of classroom instruction covering topics such as laws related to weapons and the use of deadly force, handgun use and safety, non-violent dispute resolution, and safe storage practices. Students are also required to pass a 25-question written test and a 50-round shooting qualification. It's important to note that the LTC class does not teach how to shoot; students must be proficient with basic handgun handling before attending the class. For those who do not have a handgun, the academy provides the free use of loaner Glock handguns, with ammunition available for purchase at the range. The cost of the class is $75 per person, and pre-registration is required by calling the academy at (214) 340-3101. In addition to the LTC class, Texas Handgun Academy offers various other training programs, including introductory handgun courses, Level II, III, and IV security officer training, personal protection officer courses, and private classes. These programs are conducted at the academy's private, instructor-only range in North Dallas, which features eight indoor, climate-controlled lanes. The range provides a safe and controlled environment for both classroom instruction and live-fire qualification. The academy exclusively uses Glock handguns for training purposes, ensuring consistency and reliability in firearm handling.
