Concealed Carry & Self Defense Color

You are your own first responder

We live in interesting times. Certain categories of violent crimes, like murder, are spiking across the country. We’re coming out of a year of violent protests and riots. Factions of our society are calling for reductions and outright abolishment of policing. Throughout all this chaos, one thing remains constant: You are your own first responder.

Everyone else who arrives on the scene after a call for help is, by definition, a second responder. Odds are whatever event prompted the call is over. Investing in knowledge, training and practice is the most effective thing you can do to increase the odds of successfully protecting yourself and loved ones.

This issue of Concealed Carry & Self-Defense has more useful, and practical, educational self-defense content than ever before.
