I have always been around weapons, hunted a lot as a kid. Now at 56, back in the house I grew up in to take care of my 93 yr old mother, in a town overrun with drugs and crime, I now have the peace of mind USCCA provides. Just last night (8-11-2020), had a spaced out addict on my property for half an hour, then he came on my front porch. I was ready and willing to defend myself, mom and the property. Stance ready, trigger discipline in place, I waited for him to touch that door. He decided to have a seat, and the cops arrived before he did something stupid. But knowing USCCA is there to defend us that defend ourselves gave me a great peace about it.
