Hey there northwestfirearms

[Kruel J]

Yes I do, but not a lot !

My advice, for what it's worth?.......

Get used to shooting. Practice safe handling, then practice some more. And some more. Then get proficient with a handgun. Then even more. Take a class or three in the meantime. Find a holster system that works. Then apply for your CHL.

It's not just about being interested, then carrying.

YMMV.

Regardless, stick around. You might learn something.

You will get allot of advice on what to buy, but I would advise buying something you will want to keep along time. I got my first CC handgun along time ago and still wont sell it. I have other guns before it but my first to carry with me is not for sale just something about passing on a legacy of your first carry gun, you wont think much about it now in 20 years you will if you traded or sold it. This forum is full of darn I shouldn't have sold that postings.

I would never recommend diving into the deep end without LOTS of practice in the shallow end.

Responsible carry is just that and more.

Oh trust me I want to be very very familiar with my firearm if I will be CC. I plan to take plenty of courses and go shooting often as possible

I'll take any and all advice . Look forward to finding my first Handgun!

So apply for your CHL, and practice in the meantime!
