Carry with Knowledge. Carry with Assurance. Carry with Responsibility.
Continue Your Journey in Responsible Armed Self-Defense
The decision to carry a concealed firearm is one of the greatest responsibilities a law-abiding citizen can choose to accept. Carrying a firearm requires far more than technical proficiency—it demands sound judgment, situational awareness, emotional discipline, and a thorough understanding of the legal and ethical responsibilities that accompany the use of force.
The Virginia + Utah Concealed Carry Training Program is designed for individuals who already possess a foundational understanding of firearm safety and operation, such as graduates of our Virginia Introduction to Firearms Training Program or an equivalent firearms training course.
This comprehensive eight-hour Training Program prepares students to carry concealed with confidence, responsibility, and a mindset centered on avoiding conflict whenever possible.
At Assured Shot, we believe that education is a lifelong responsibility—not a single class. Our goal is not simply to help you obtain a permit, but to develop the knowledge, assurance, judgment, and responsibility necessary to carry a firearm with wisdom and integrity.
