Concealed carry classes at Shooters Sports Center are taught by one of our training instructors and are based on the Wisconsin DOJ recommended CCW program with a focus on critical thinking and the use lethal force. We focus on proper firearm safety, rules of engagement, and non-lethal alternatives like Tasers and Pepper Spray.
