Practical CCW Advice from Dave Spaulding


Dave Spaulding wrote an article appearing in this months issue of Gun & Ammo magazine that contains some of the most practical, important, and concise information about carrying a handgun for personal protection that you will ever read.
  • Carrying a firearm on one's person is a lifestyle commitment.
  • I have spoken with my share of criminals, and the one thing I can assure you is that they are not afraid of guns but are afraid of the willing person with a gun.
  • The biggest mistake many people make is to conceal the gun too deeply, making quick deployment problematic if not impossible.
  • Keep your response simple and don't fall victim to "tactical stupidity".
