Quote - As said before though it is a very good idea to at least take a class covering the legal aspects of concealed carry.
I can't agree or emphasis this enough. Having taught classes about the legal side of self defense and the aftermath, both from a civilian perspect and how the investigation is going to go by law enforcement, I would have say this knowledge is more paramount than any hands on firearm training you can do.
Frankly, the best weapon you have at your disposal at all times is your brain. If you cannot use it, the firearm only gets you into trouble, as well as your talking, even if you think you are helping yourself, which you cannot possibly evaluate adequately due to the enormous amount of stress you will be under.
Get proper training.
A toughening of your mental hyde is your best defense.
All you will need is a DD214 member 4 copy. Member 4 lists your separation code i.e. Honorable and that is why member 4 is required. For active duty folks that do not have their DD214 and active duty ID will be accepted.
