Relating to the rights of special forces veterans who hold a license to carry a handgun.

SB 2283 adds a "SPECIAL FORCES VETERAN" designation to Texas handgun carry licenses for qualifying veterans. It directly affects veterans who served at least 12 consecutive months in specific U.S. Army Special Forces roles (e.g., detachment commander, weapons sergeant) at enlisted, warrant, or commissioned officer pay grades. The bill requires license applications to include space for veterans to list qualifying service and submit proof for the designation, and it mandates that licenses display this new designation when eligibility is confirmed. This change modifies existing license forms and definitions but does not alter eligibility requirements for handgun carry licenses.
