The Absolute Concealed Carry Guide :: 01/06/2015
The average person concealed carrying (CC) a firearm is just like any other law-abiding citizen. They’re welders, doctors, stay-at-home moms, and journalists, and they make up a quickly growing portion of the population here in the United States. And not only do they stand for themselves, they stand for others. In fact, legally armed citizens stop more than twice as many crimes as law enforcement officers do, and with a less-than-2% error rate compared to the 11% error rate among law enforcement. In the world of legally-owned firearm owners there are more than 2.5 million cases of justified self-defense annually involving the drawing of a weapon, and in 92% of those cases the mere presence of the gun is either enough of a deterrent or enough to hold a criminal until law enforcement arrives.
