• Schedule your CHL training with Gunplay USA.  Remember - this is not a learn to shoot class. You are expected to be able to shoot a score of 70% or better at the proficiency demonstration.  

If you believe you may need help qualifying we offer training classes, either one-on-one or group.  Call for details or surf this web site.

• Complete the online CHL application.

  The online CHL application is the recommended avenue  to  your license. All information is immediately delivered to DPS, eliminating the effort and risks of mailing the application. Applying online also saves you the cost and effort of getting printed affidavits notarized. At the end of the application process, you will be provided a checklist of required supporting documents.

• Schedule an appointment for fingerprinting through L-1 Identity Solutions. This is the only entity authorized by the DPS to submit your fingerprints. This must be completed after your application is submitted. L-1 will require your DPS registration information before they will schedule your appointment.

• Review Texas Concealed Handgun Laws.

  This pamphlet contains a wealth of applicable Texas law. Reviewing it before your training will be very helpful.
