The laws regarding concealed carry and the use of deadly force are amazingly complex. Even if there is no requirement for training in your area, I beg you to get the training you NEED to ensure that you are a responsibly armed citizen.
Just because there may not be a legal requirement does not mean there is no need for training. By the same token, even if a requirement infringes on your right, that does not mean the training is not important. Get the training. You need it.
Kevin Michalowski is currently the Executive Editor of Concealed Carry Magazine, a working law enforcement officer and a pistol instructor with certifications in five different areas of training.
