FAQ
Does Texas allow permitless carry? Yes. As of Sept. 1, 2021, permitless concealed and open carry is legal for anyone at least 21 years old who is not prohibited from lawfully possessing a handgun under federal law or Texas state law.
For concealed carry, the handgun may be carried anywhere on or about your person (e.g., pocket, purse, boot, etc.) so long as the handgun is wholly concealed. So, what does this actually mean? As long as no part of the handgun is visible, the law considers it legally canceled.
Texas Gun Laws “Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.”
A full restoration of rights, however, can only be achieved by submitting an application to the Clemency Section of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles. Without being granted a pardon, a felon's right to possess a firearm is limited to the place where they are living.
As of 2021, Texas law no longer requires people to have a license to carry (LTC) in order to carry a handgun in most public places.
