Have a CCW permit but haven't actually trained on using your concealed weapon? The Concealed Defensive Handgun class is designed to make you an effectively armed citizen, not just someone carrying a firearm. Although only an introductory level class is required as a prerequisite, it is recommended that you have an intermediate level or a fair amount of experience with a handgun.

This class teaches the skills required to responsibly carry a firearm in public. Clothing and concealment options are discussed, as well as the moral and legal considerations for carrying. Students learn how to draw from concealment safely and effectively from daily positions, navigate dangerous situations, and operate a smaller firearm in general. Presentation from cover, reloading, and correcting malfunctions are all practiced, with multiple rounds and multiple targets involved. You won't find another concealed carry class at a better value.

Areas covered in this class:

• Firearms safety and safe gun-handling procedures
• “Combat Mindset”
• Violence avoidance strategies
• Basic pistol marksmanship review
• Clothing and equipment decisions
• Deciding where to conceal the weapon
• Fine tuning the presentation from the concealed holster
• Mastering the firing sequence
• Understanding the reactionary gap on the front and backside of an engagement
• Balancing speed and accuracy
• Moving off the “X”
• Reloading effectively
• Malfunction reviews
• Last magazine malfunction drill
• Rhythm drills to establish consistent, accurate fire
• Shooting multiple rounds while engaging multiple threats
