At CCW Colorado, we have created this complimentary course specifically to empower both prospective and new gun owners in making the best self-defense decisions for themselves and their loved ones. Your safety can't wait—now is the time to take proactive steps.

Objectives of This Free Class:

​

• Equip new and prospective gun owners with essential information about self-defense laws

• Provide clarity on the different types of firearms suitable for self-defense

• Guide you in determining which firearm, if any, is best suited to your unique needs

• Promote understanding of the safest ways to store firearms

If you're considering applying for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP), completing certified training that meets Colorado's requirements—like our Tier 3 Concealed Carry class—is essential. This introductory course is your starting point for exploring self-defense options before moving forward with firearm ownership or concealed carry. Don’t delay—your preparedness begins here.

​

Always remember: effective self-defense is rooted in knowledge, preparation, and thoughtful decisions—not fear. Take action now to build a solid foundation for your safety.
