Do yourself a huge favor, and take the BEST training course available, and do not allow any shortcuts when taking this training. In CA, unfortunately, it is a "privilege" and not a right to be issued a CCW. Training is very important, and selecting the best instructor should be a very important factor, when you will be carrying a concealed weapon everyday. Regardless of the number of days, or how long the training is, or how far away the training center is, it is very crucial to know the laws of the state of CA, and particularly knowing the laws when it comes down to self defense, and where you are not allowed to carry weapons, etc., rather than just demonstrating that you can shoot a gun at a range.

At BEST CCW Training, you will walk away with a tremendous amount of knowledge, and you will be well prepared to carry concealed weapons. Check out our reviews on Facebook!
