Firearms courses in Brownsville
Five courses, taught in person by NRA Certified and Texas DPS-certified instructors. If you are not sure which one you need, read which class do I need? first.

- NRA Basic Pistol
Eight hours that take you from never having held a handgun to shooting one safely. This is where new shooters should start.
- License to Carry (LTC)
The six-hour class Texas requires before you can apply for a licence to carry a handgun. We run it once a month in Brownsville.
- Women's-Only Basic Pistol
The same eight-hour NRA Basic Pistol course, taught by a woman, with only women in the room.
- Personal Protection Inside the Home
The second rung of the ladder. Defensive shooting and home safety strategy for people who already have the fundamentals.
- Personal Protection Outside the Home
The top of the ladder. Carrying and using a concealed pistol responsibly outside the home — and, before any of that, avoiding the confrontation altogether.
- NRA Basic Rifle
Rifle, not pistol — and it sits outside the pistol ladder. You can take this one at any time, with no prior course.
- Private, One-on-One Instruction
One instructor, one student, at your pace. Booked directly with us, as often or as rarely as you want.
