PREREQUISITES:

• If you’ve never been to Shady Oaks Gun Range, please print, fill out, and bring with you: Questionnaire, Range Rules, and Insurance Waiver.  Or you can show up a few minutes early to complete the form at the range during check-in.
• Texas drivers license or state-issued photo ID is required by the range.
• Handgun of your choice (Rentals available if needed, no charge for the rental, but ammo is additional fee.  Show up a few minutes early to make arrangements.) All firearms must be in a bag or case when you arrive for check-in.
• Ammunition: You will need 50 rounds for the shooting qualification.  (Available for purchase if needed.)
• Hearing and eye protection are required on the range.  (Loaners available if needed, but it’s always better and more sanitary to bring your own personal equipment.)

CLASS INFO:

The class will start promptly at 6:30pm.  We’ll begin in the classroom to discuss:

• Range Instruction Fundamentals – (1 hour) – Discussion of range etiquette, clearing malfunctions, managing recoil, and marksmanship fundamentals.  This is classroom discussion only and not for beginner novice shooters.  You must have a basic level of proficiency before this class.
• Review of LTC range course of fire
• Next steps for your LTC application

Range Qualification

• We will follow the course of fire per the Texas DPS requirements: texreg.sos.state.tx.us/fids/201700716-1.pdf
• Optical enhancers such as lasers, red dot sites, or scopes, are not permitted by Texas DPS when qualifying.
• Effective Sept. 1, 2017 – There is no minimum caliber requirement of the handgun used to demonstrate proficiency. (You can use .22LR)
• You only need one magazine.  The shooting portion is generally split into strings of 5 rounds each with plenty of time to reload between strings.  Use of ammo speedloader is okay.
• Please know you are NOT required to use your compact carry pistol.  In fact, unless you practice a lot with it, you are strongly encouraged to use a full-size gun because you will be shooting 50 rounds. This can be a little intense with a little gun if you don’t do this regularly.  It can also be difficult to hit the 15 yard shots with a small gun.  You want the biggest, heaviest gun you’re comfortable using or use a .22LR pistol.

Certificate of Training

After successful completion of the range proficiency demonstration, your instructor will sign and return your LTC-101 Certificate of Training form to you.  It is your responsibility to submit your Certificate of Training to TXDPS for processing.  Your Class Completion Certificate is valid for two years after your LTC class.
