NRA Personal Protection class

Just finished teaching the NRA Personal Protection in the Home class last Saturday as part of a four instructor team. It's a pretty good class and is a good starting point for people who are interested in obtaining their Concealed Carry permit. Forty-nine of the fifty states currently have laws allowing some form of concealed carry of a pistol for self defense (Come on, Illinois ... we're waiting). Topics include firearm safety, marksmanship, explanation of ammunition, use of cover and concealment, plus a lecture from a law enforcement officer or a lawyer on state statutes and use of deadly force and the law. Contact the National Rifle Association for details of classes in your state.
