Description:

The USCCA Concealed Carry class is a defensive handgun course for those who carry, or are considering carrying, a handgun for self-defense.

The United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA) is one of the preeminent training organizations in the country providing Concealed Carry Handgun and Home Defense classes, and a broad range of superb training publications, videos, and on-line programs. The USCCA also provides a range of excellent self-defense firearm legal insurance programs. Indy Arms is proud to currently have five USCCA-certified firearms instructors (and three USCCA Training Counselors) on our training staff (and all of those instructors are also certified by other major training organizations, including the National Rifle Association, Tactical Training Associates, and the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy).

USCCA Concealed Carry is an informational and hands-on class in the carrying and use of a handgun in self-defense. Jeff Cooper, the legendary founder of Gunsite Academy, is credited with saying, “Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.” This class is meant to address that issue by providing some of the basic knowledge and skills that will contribute to your being effectively armed.

The class covers firearms handling safety, range safety, and personal safety. We summarize the legal, psychological, and law-enforcement response issues involved in using a firearm for self-defense. (And for those wanting more information, these topics are covered in extreme detail in a separate Indy Arms classroom course, Fundamentals of Armed Self-Defense.) We practice basic handling, operation, and shooting skills with training guns, “dry” in the classroom. And the course concludes with live-fire session on the range allowing students to train with their own defensive handgun (rentals available) through a series of defensive drills.

This course will consist of about 4.5 hours of classroom material and practice, and about 1.5 hours of live-fire range time but sometimes runs a bit longer, based on student questions.

Must have:

Students should bring 125 rounds of practice ammo for their gun of choice.

Rental handguns must use ammunition purchased from Indy Arms
Students under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult (ask about a youth discount for training classes)
Students arriving more than 10 minutes after the designated start time may not be allowed into class and will need to reschedule
