Student TestimonialsSince I had been shooting for years, and reading websites related to concealed carry, I was worried that taking General Defensive Hangun wouldn't provide much value. I sure was wrong about that! There were so many things I learned that I had no idea I didn't know. I'll cetainly be taking more classes at Insights. ~ Dan R, Bellevue, WA |

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat kind of gun should I bring?We suggest bringing a handgun that is full size (similar to Glock 17) or compact size (similar to Glock 19). Can I bring a small gun, such as S&W Shield, Ruger LCP or similar? We do not recommend small guns for this class. Smaller, sub-compact guns are often not as reliable and are more difficult to manipulate. Also the magazines hold less ammunition. So your training time will be more frustrating and less productive. What holster should I bring? Strong-side belt holsters only – no appendix rigs, drop-leg rigs, shoulder holsters, etc. And your holster should be made for your exact model of gun. We recommend the Kramer IWB#3 horsehide holster (with screws not snaps on the belt loops) or the Kramer Belt Scabbard horsehide holster. Also acceptable are Kydex belt holsters such as the Tenicor ARX, or Blade-Tech. No Blackhawk Serpa or similar holsters allowed (retention release too near the trigger). Holsters must be rigid and stay open when the gun is not in them -- no collapsible holsters. No retention devices are required or recommended. Also, you must wear pants that have belt loops. What belt and mag pouch should I bring? Bring a gun belt such as the Kramer horsehide belt -- 1.25" or 1.5" works well. Kramer horsehide mag pouches are also recommended. Kydex mag pouches are acceptable. No collapsible mag pouches -- they should be rigid like the holsters and stay open when the mag is not in them. |
