What is the Concealed Carry Foundations class?

Concealed Carry Foundations is a one-day training course designed to give you the essential skills every responsible concealed carrier must have: a fast, consistent draw from concealment, accurate first-shot hits, and the ability to move “off the X” to avoid danger.

This is not just theory. You’ll spend the day building habits through hands-on drills, live fire exercises, and realistic defensive scenarios. By the end of class, you’ll have the confidence to carry concealed knowing you can access your firearm quickly, get accurate hits on target, and move to safety under pressure.

👉 If you’re still working on the basics of shooting—like consistently hitting your target or managing your trigger control—we highly recommend you first take our Cheat Codes of Shooting™ 1 class happening the day before this class. It will give you the foundation needed to get the most out of Concealed Carry Foundations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this class designed for?

This course is designed for beginner to intermediate shooters who already understand basic firearm safety and want to build real concealed carry skills. It’s a great fit if you:

Already own or plan to carry a concealed handgun.
Want to feel confident drawing your firearm in a defensive situation.
Need to improve your accuracy and speed under pressure.
Are ready to add movement and defensive decision-making to your shooting.
