Many people ask: “Why should I get a concealed weapons permit?”
You should get your concealed weapons permit so that you can defend yourself and your loved ones from the numerous “bad guys” out there in the world. Most deadly-force encounters are over within less than 1 minute, from beginning to end.
The typical response time for law enforcement is at least 4 minutes.
Gun ownership is a serious responsibility and the use of deadly force is a very serious matter and so is protecting your family.
Even if you do not want to get your concealed weapons permit, you should still get training in the safe handling of firearms and the laws of self-defense.
