Carrying concealed is good. Having a plan every time you carry is also good: know in advance what you will do in various scenarios....run first, then shoot if pursued? Shoot when an aggressive move is made against you?
Know this, once you brandish that weapon at someone, you better pull the trigger.
One of the first rules of which is to avoid going places armed that you wouldn't go unarmed. It's probably even wiser to take it a step further and avoid more places armed than you would unarmed. Whether your justified or not, it's most likely going to ruin your life, if you have to use it. I had this thing happen once. Going for a walk down the dirt road in the rural area where I lived. It was dark and some freak in a vehicle, where I never encounter vehicles, comes up behind me, stops the car, shuts it off. I took off my gloves, unzipped my jacket, unbuttoned my outer shirt and thought, "here we go, this is why." I didn't turn around and just kept walking till I got home. No one got out of the car. I never knew WTF that was about.
My father taught me as a child to always be aware of my surroundings....to think like an Indian and keep your eyes open, ears listening and body ready to react in any situation. It is better to avoid confrontation, if at all possible...Always be ready to move quickly and think fast...it has worked to protect me for a lifetime. My thinking fast has defused and got me out of some very dangerous situations...twice I had a knife on my throat. My words and unexpected reactions...got me out of these situations.
The best defense is to avoid a confrontation if possible. Stay out of high crime areas. Always be aware of your surroundings (situational awareness). Be aware of people acting suspiciously or aggressively. Be aware of alternative routes and places to take refuge. If you are driving, remember you a sitting in a great weapon if you use it with some caution. Being in shape, knowing how to fight is terrific, but be aware that most bad people are carrying some sort of weapon. Carry your own weapons. You can carry pepper spray, sharp/pointed weapons, knives. Whatever you carry, know how to use them and what their limitations are. Often the best weapon is the most lethal- a gun. In most states, you can legally carry a pistol or revolver. Know what the requirements are in your state (hopefully, none). Carry as large a gun as you can comfortably carry and accurately shoot in the highest caliber. The smartest move is to obtain as much training as you can afford and practice often. Remember that shooting another person may result in their death and that you are responsible for any bullet that leaves the barrel of your gun. Only shoot another person when it seems likely that it is the only way you will remain alive or not suffer serious injury.
I looked at the site and it seems intriguing and worth learning. However, it's unfortunate they don't include a sample video to watch before paying over $300 to join.

Train, practice. Survive.
Whether you maintain a M92 Zastava or a BHP in 9mm or a pump shotgun, it does not make the decision to be used, YOU DO.
