Relating to the creation of an enhanced license designation for a license to carry a handgun and the locations in which the holder of that enhanced license may carry a handgun.

HB 4818 creates a new "enhanced" license designation for Texas handgun carry permits. To qualify, applicants must request the designation and provide proof of completing a specific handgun training course and demonstrating proficiency within 180 days before applying. This enhanced license would display the "ENHANCED" designation on the permit, distinguishing it from standard licenses. The bill directly affects handgun permit applicants who seek this additional authorization. It does not change where permit holders may carry firearms but establishes new requirements for the enhanced designation.
