Series Description

We use the term “responsibly armed American” a lot at the USCCA. But what does it actually mean?

It is a reference to a certain type of person, someone who has made the choice to bear the responsibility of protecting the people he or she loves. It takes grit, independence and dedication.

Being responsibly armed means you take your role as the ultimate protector seriously. You are more than just a gun owner. You are your family’s first line of defense when it matters most. But the world of responsible gun ownership can be daunting.

This training series will equip you with the essential knowledge every armed American needs. Tim Schmidt, president and founder of the USCCA, and Michael Martin, author of Concealed Carry & Home-Defense Fundamentals, will host your training videos.

Consider this your roadmap to becoming a more confident and capable protector, with enhanced knowledge about all of the following topics:

  • Home security and home defense
  • Developing a personal protection plan
  • Gun laws and you
  • Selecting a firearm
  • Top 10 concealed carry mistakes
  • Gun range and gun shop etiquette
