SECTION 1: LICENSE TO CARRY LAWS AND REGULATIONS Q1 – Q13
══════════════════════════════════════
Question 1 of 50
A 30-year-old Texas resident walks into a privately owned retail store and notices a sign posted
at the entrance in both English and Spanish. The sign contains the specific language referencing
"Penal Code Section 30.06" and displays the letters "TC" in a contrasting color. What legal
restriction does this sign impose on the License to Carry (LTC) holder?
A. It prohibits the open carry of handguns but allows concealed carry
B. It prohibits the concealed carry of handguns but allows open carry
C. It prohibits both open and concealed carry of handguns on the premises
D. It serves as a request to leave firearms at the front desk rather than a legal prohibition
,2
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A sign referencing Section 30.06 specifically prohibits concealed carry on the
premises, whereas a sign referencing 30.07 prohibits open carry. While a business can post both,
a 30.06 sign alone targets concealed carriers, and compliance is legally required for LTC holders.
Question 2 of 50
While filling out an application for a Texas License to Carry, an applicant is asked about their
criminal history. The applicant was convicted of a Class A misdemeanor two years ago but has
since completed all probation requirements. How does this conviction affect their eligibility for
the LTC?
A. The applicant is automatically disqualified due to the misdemeanor conviction
B. The applicant is eligible as long as the conviction was not a felony or a family violence
misdemeanor
C. The applicant must wait an additional three years from the end of probation to apply
D. The applicant must provide a letter of recommendation from a judge to override the
disqualification
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Texas law generally disqualifies applicants only for felony convictions or certain
Class A and B misdemeanors involving family violence. Standard Class A misdemeanors without
a family violence component do not permanently bar an individual from obtaining a license once
sentencing is complete.
Question 3 of 50
An LTC holder is driving through a school zone and the traffic lights are flashing, indicating the
reduced speed limit is active. The LTC holder has a handgun concealed in their vehicle. Under
current Texas law, what is the legal status of the handgun in this specific situation?
A. The handgun must be unloaded and locked in the trunk during school hours
, 3
B. The handgun is illegal regardless of whether it is concealed because the vehicle is in a school
zone
C. The handgun may remain legally concealed in the vehicle provided the LTC holder is not
prohibited by law
D. The handgun must be openly displayed on the dashboard to comply with notification
requirements
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Texas law prohibits firearms in school zones only under specific federal conditions
(like being on school property), but generally, LTC holders are exempt from the general federal
prohibition regarding school zones if the firearm is not on school property itself. As long as the
driver remains on the public roadway and obeys traffic laws, possession remains legal.
Question 4 of 50
A licensed individual decides to carry their handgun in a shoulder holster that makes the weapon
partially visible through the openings of a jacket. The jacket is unbuttoned. Under Texas statutes,
how is this method of carry classified?
A. Open carry
B. Concealed carry
C. Improper display of a weapon
D. Disorderly conduct
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: If the handgun is partially visible or discernible by an ordinary observer, even if
partially covered, it is generally considered open carry. Since Texas allows open carry for LTC
holders, this is legal, but it is not legally considered "concealed."
Q5: An LTC holder attends a high school football game. The holder has a handgun. Where is this
prohibited?
A. Only inside the school building
