CCW Safe

Host Rob High is joined by CCW Safe President Kent Brown to discuss the new upgrades made to all existing CCW Safe member plans. These upgrades are free for all current and future members. The core mission of CCW Safe is to take care of our members and with these new additions to member plans we have increased the amount coverage available to all members for no charge.

This week National Trial Counsel Don West, Critical Response Coordinator Gary Eastridge and Critical Response Team Member Rob High discuss one of the most often asked topics we deal with. When should you draw or reveal your weapon in a self defense situation? What happens when you do and the situation ends? With over eighty years of legal and law enforcement experience between them the guys take a deep dive into a complex issue.

Legendary firearms instructor John Farnam talks to the gang about “soft skills” that can keep an armed defender out of avoidable conflicts, and make them hard to convict after a necessary use of force incident.

Shawn Vincent and Don West look at how retired MMA fighter Shannon “The Cannon” Rich found himself in an argument over a parking space when the other guy attacked him with a knife. Rich retrieved a pistol from his vehicle and fired a lethal shot in self-defense. Eyewitness accounts and security footage matched Rich’s statement to police and he was not charged, but the experience provides lessons for concealed carriers about the value of de-escalation and some insight on how to navigate post shooting interactions with law enforcement.

CCW Safe Use of Force Expert Rob High and Firing Line Radio host Phillip Naman discuss good reasons to document your firearms and self-defense training.
