Cost is $75, $65 for members of the Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL). Please contact me to reserve a spot; this class will be limited to 20 people. Email me for reservations and billing information. Bring pen and paper to take notes.
For the cost of 200 rounds of .45 ACP (if you can find it) you will get a much deeper understanding of self-defense in the Commonwealth of Virginia from an attorney. Plenty of shooters are willing to invest in their shooting skills but not many invest in their understanding of the legal boundaries of self-defense.
The seminar covers the following topics:
- Purchase and possession of arms in the Commonwealth of Virginia
- General legal guidelines for the use of force
- Justification versus Excuse
- Self-defense
- Virginia's lack of a "castle doctrine" - and why it (mostly) doesn't matter
- Defense of Others
- Defense of Property
- What is "open carry" and what is "concealed carry" in Virginia? Not quite what you think.
- Interacting with Law Enforcement Officers
- Travelling armed: planes, trains, and automobiles
- What to do when in other jurisdictions: a practical "travelling" mode for reciprocal states
A legal seminar is not a concealed handgun course - it is a legal class on the statutes and case law governing the open or concealed carry of a handgun. This DOES NOT meet the Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) requirements. Rather, this is intended for people who already have a CHP but are not versed in the law. If you received your CHP after a basic concealed handgun course with no discussion of the legal implications of using a handgun in self-defense, this is for you.
