The State of Texas requires that you receive 10 hours of training, including range time and testing (4 hours for renewals). We believe we pack more useful information into that 10 hours than the other guys! You'll be treated to a professionally prepared multimedia presentation, complete with video, photos and graphics. Discussion and questions are always encouraged.
Your CHL class fee includes:
- 8 hours of classroom instruction in a comfortable classroom
- Written exam, and Range Qualification at an air conditioned indoor range
- CHL Target
Your CHL class fee does NOT include:
- Ammo for qualification test (you will need a minimum of 50 rds, you may purchase from us at www.houstongunsales.com) or from us before we go to the range.
- Beginner Handgun Instruction - If you cannot safely load, unload, and operate a handgun please learn to do so from a qualified instructor before coming to class.
- Online application completion with the DPS. Packets and Notary services are no longer required - Application is online through the DPS.
- Finger Prints are now handled electronically through DPS, and you will need to get 2 Color passport photos as well.
You'll need to complete the Online CHL Application with the State of Texas before submitting your paperwork to the state. This may be done before or after your class. Fingerprints are scheduled during the Online CHL Application process.
See our Class Schedule to register.
Don't have a gun?
If you don't have a gun to use in your CHL class, we'll rent you one for only $20.00. Ammo must be purchased seperately. Just check "Gun Rental" when you register for any class. If you decide to buy the rental, we will gladly apply the $10 rental fee to the cost of the gun!
Note: Prices do not include licensing fees paid directly to the State of Texas.
Unfortunately, we cannot refund your class fee if you do not pass.
Due to the obvious dangers present in this business, HoustonGunClass.com reserves the right to refuse training or qualification to anyone for any reason.
