    Default How many who CC regularly have "shooters" insurance?

    How many people here have shooters insurance (in case you have to use your weapon?)

    I think that the NRA actually does carry such a thing, though I am not absolutely certain. At least, I think they used to offer it. I remember hearing about it through my local IDPA chapter--can't remember if it was one of IDPA's programs or if they were just advertising the NRA one.

    Yes there is, I think there are 2, NRA and someplace else does it, and I think you need minimum 100,000 coverage, which is about $150 a year.

    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Well Colorado law states that in your home if a person a) illegally enters, and b) you suspect they will or have committed a crime and/or c) you feel your life is in danger you are not liable for civil and criminal penalties- basically immune from any civil or criminal prosecution. Not sure if you can try to apply that to the rest of the world, but I would think if I shot someone defending myself I wouldn't have to worry about insurance covering anything, insurance doesn't cover corpses

    Default USCCA has a new program - Self-Defense Shield...

    Check out this link... The program is brand new, in fact it doesn't even start until June 6, so they haven't released all of the details yet...

    Please don't forget there is a huge difference between not having to defend yourself from criminal charges and being sued in civil court by a distraught mother whose precious little snowflake would never have done such a thing as break into your house at 2am. Doesn't matter if they win or lose, you're out thousands for lawyer fees.

    Reread my post- I said both CIVIL and criminal... the courts will throw out any civil case that looks like a clean cut matter of self defense, Colorado Legislature protects us there.
