A little over a year ago I was given a certificate to attend a free 2 day defensive handgun coarse at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute by a friend of You Can Carry. Because of a busy work schedule it took me a while to get out and use it–but a few months ago my wife [...]

This was posted on our Facebook page–but I wanted to share it here as well.  It was written by a Marine who shares his feelings on why he carries a gun.  It’s been around for a while, but it’s definitely worth the read (even a second or third time). The Gun is Civilization by Maj. [...]

MSNBC wrote about the history of concealed carry today–one of the big points of the article was the debate between pro-gun and anti-gun folks regarding crime statistics in relation to concealed carry permits.  Bottom line–there is no credible source that says more concealed carry increases violent crime-none (unless you count the factless opinions of the [...]

I emphasize that this is JUST IN UTAH (and as always, you should verify all local laws for yourself–we are not lawyers). Utah law allows you [...]
