So after years of working like a sheep for others I'm finally my own employee (bye bye income!), and one of my clients says "if you do your work right, you're going to become a target. Get a CCW."
Then another says basically the same thing.

I figure train before you need it and then it's just paperwork.

So I do some research, and find this guy who teaches basic handgun and on up.

Turns out he's your own CCWI.

So I take the course, and realize: not only can I do this, but getting there is going to be fun!

Thanks to everyone here for setting great examples, then sharing your experience!
And now I get it: it's going to take more than paperwork...
