Approved CWP Firearms Instructor, and have been teaching CWP classes since 1996. <br />I have encountered numerous individuals with "disabilities", which I prefer to refer to as "challenges" when it comes to handling and using firearms for personal protection.<br />Each case is different, but the idea of working threw the situation is what is important.<br />The idea is to focus on what you have, instead of what you don't have. This concept also works well on most every other idea concerning survival and self preservation.<br />If you are defending yourself in a fight for your life, you may very well be wounded or hurt during the confrontation. What do you do then, give up?<br />The answer is, to be strong enough in your mindset to continue the fight and live to be a winner.

As a physically disabled person that's been shooting one-armed for 18 years now, it's been a much longer road than would've been needed if those I've taken instruction from had put more thought into their training. As it is, I'm largely self taught... and it shows :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
