Main Topic: Conceal Carry in Illinois

Greg from Index Point Holsters

Classroom experience:

How long ago did you take your CCW class?

Was CCW class close to one on one?

Now large was the class?

What was the quality of the CCW class?

Now did you locate the company for your training?

Range experience:

On range day at my class it was a cattle call. Lots of people packed the range and standing in line waiting to get into the range for their turn.  

Conceal Carry in the Wild:

Conceal Carry Family & Public Perceptions:

I believe the community and media spend inordinate amounts of time vilifying the inanimate object (the firearm) and little time addressing the people who use firearms for ill purposes.  I think I understand why. Simply, it is easily to ban an object; and much tougher to control the actions of the lawbreaker.

Family:

60/40 against, or just do not understand the mindset of conceal carry.

I’ve had opportunities to explain why I carry.

I’ve also had great and productive opportunities to explain the discipline associated with target practice, and it is not only about shooting people.

Community:

What was your process to learning to carry as a new CCW holder? I have a process that worked for me, I will explain quickly.

How do you; or did you address printing when you initially started carrying concealed?

With what is happening in the news these days, it is important for licensed individuals to carry.

Good Guys with Guns already making a difference:

Police in Chicago Give Hero his Gun Back

Uber driver, licensed to carry gun, shoots gunman in Logan Square

Greg’s Plug:

Index Point Holsters

How did I get started holster making?

Why did I start making holsters?

What firearms am I making holsters for?
