Honorary ID & Concealed Carry Information

Note: If you see anything below that needs to be corrected just let us know.

concealed carry

| Step #1 |

First of all, you must obtain an Honorary Retired Officer ID. If you have an ID card already, check the back side. You need the one that does not have an expiration date on it. If you have one that does expire you can wait until you have to re-new to obtain the new one. If you simply want the ID card and do not want to carry a weapon, this is the only step you need to take.

Note: If you do not have a computer, you will need to contact Randy Malone for more information.

Shooting at Range other than APD Range

If you are shooing at a range other than the APD Range, you must use a certified firearms instructor that is qualified to conduct a firearms qualification test for active duty officers. Most states should have a standardized form for out of state officers to use when qualifying, and the Range instructors probably have the form or can tell you how to obtain one. TCOLE (TCLEOSE) does not have a form APD retirees who shoot in Texas but not at the APD Range. If you cannot obtain a form to use we created a form that has all the needed information on it, should you need to prove you qualified.

* * * Bring Your Own Ammo * * *

For those shooting in Texas but not at the APD range:

If you are carrying under Texas Law, you have to qualify every two years. If you travel out of state you may want to shoot every year just to be covered outside of Texas.

For those shooting at an Out of State range:

* * *
If you do not have an ID card signed off on by Range Instructor, you do need to have a copy of the form
showing you qualified, keep original in safe place in case needed.
* * *
