I am glad Missouri had a mandatory CCW class. I learned quite a bit about guns, gun laws, do's & don'ts, along with several good recommendations. I feel the day long class was well worth it.
My husband and I had two whole days of classes at Jefferson. Welcome to this group and please fill up your profile as to where you are.
 
Choosing a defense pistol

I certainly agree that the .380 ACP is the absolute minimum for a personal defense pistol, particularly if loaded with Hornaday's new "Critical Defense" ammo. A good rule of thumb to follow when getting your first handgun is to get the largest caliber that you can shoot comfortably. There's no point in getting a very large caliber pistol that leaves the shooter shaking and unsteady after the first shot.

Hello everyone I am from PA and a person on the ATVingPA site introduced me to this place.Looking forward to chating with everyone in the future.
 
After years away from shooting, just took the wife and I to Allen Arms and completed the CWP class for SC. She liked it so much, she's coming back with me for advanced training; I think I started something here. Our instructor told us about USA Carry and here I am, and glad about it.
 
Hey all my name is Brett from Ocala, Florida. I just applied for my CCW and got a new Ruger SR9C to be my daily carry. Also ordered a White Hat IWB holster which I am excited to get. I have been shooting for a while with my Glock Model 21 and also have an Advantage Arms .22 conversion for it. Looks like a great site and excited to learn more from all of you...
