I'm from Texas, where they removed most licensing requirements and it's idiotic. You still need one to carry on a college campus and certain other state-owned facilities, but it's mostly a free-for-all.

I still keep my License to Carry up to date because I think I should have to maintain a license. It also let's me skip the security line in some state facilities (including the Capitol) where license holders can carry.

I used to also shoot weekly during lunch break at nearby range too to keep my skills up. Now I only go a few times a year because a buying a case of 9mm just about requires taking out a second mortgage. I also rarely carry, since in business casual it's hard to conceal anything but a pocket 380, and I'm so bad with my LCP I'd have trouble shooting my car while sitting inside it.
