CHL NEW LICENSE INFORMATION

Welcome!

classicCHL is offering affordable, quality, and professional firearms training in the Houston/Galveston area.

CHL Class Information (First Time Applicants)
Our Texas Concealed Handgun License Class is held on a Saturday or Sunday three or four times a month from 7:00AM - 6:00PM. The classes are held at different locations in the Houston/Galveston area.
If you already have your Application Packet bring it to class with you. You do not need to have the Application Packet, or be registered with the state to attend the CHL Class.

The state mandates that the CHL course be not less than 10 hours and not more than 15 hours long. Our complete class is from 8:00AM - 6:00PM (we provide lunch).

This CHL course is not designed to teach you how to shoot. The CHL Shooting Proficiency section of the class is to test your ability to safely handle and shoot the handgun. You will be required to pass with a score of 175 out of a possible 250 points (70%). You will need to bring your handgun and 1 box (50 rounds) of ammunition to class and leave the handgun locked in your vehicle in the parking lot. If you do not have a handgun we can furnish you with a semi-automatic handgun at no charge (you will have to furnish your own ammunition).

Check the CHL New License Class Schedule page for times, dates, and locations.
