Kind of a no brainer yet.. my 1st question to current gun owner is more so why they aren't a member yet and what is their to consider? Everyday events are not planned nor in your control. EDC or Home defense- we can prepare and plan for everything under the sun yet the one thing that gives me peace of mind is who has my back in the event I have to defend myself or my family in a critical moment. I view USCCA as my foundation and my support. The resources, videos, readings, magazines, incentives, etc, etc are all fantastic additions to your toolbox to build your knowledge however and at the pace you wish. Continued knowledge and education is my personal ammo . Forever member. Thank you, USCCA Family... Best, e365
