Off Body (Purse/Bag) Conceal Carry Course

There are techniques on how to hold and carry a conceal carry purse or bag that we will be discussing.
The concept of off-body concealed carry offers a flexible option for women, and men, when they cannot conceal carry using traditional holsters.
Carrying off-body in a purse, backpack, briefcase, etc. brings additional responsibility for concealed carry permit holders, which makes this course a necessity if you plan to carry off-body.
At the end of this course , participants will understand the risks, safety factors and skills related to off-body carry.
We will review how to "fit" your pistol in your purse for a consistent draw. The class is a combination of “dry practice” exercises where you will learn to draw off-body, re-load while moving, defensive shooting fundamentals and shot placement.
You will also learn basic situational awareness to avoid and de-escalate a threat, as well as engage when it is/is not appropriate to draw and use your firearm.
