PRS Tactical Concealed Carry Training

"A very informative class! I have been shooting for over twenty years and learned a lot of new things. Will be taking more advanced classes from PRS in the future." - Brian
"The Missouri CCW Class with PRS Tactical was comprehensive and conducted in a professional manner. The instructor covered all aspects of obtaining a permit, as well as firearm safety, firearm selection, proper shooting technique and various options for concealed carry.  I would recommend this class for both experienced and new shooters and plan on taking an advanced tactical course with Dave Kingsbury in the future." - Bob

Thank you for your interest in PRS Tactical. I am currently not teaching regularly scheduled courses so I can spend more time with my family. I do have limited availability to teach private courses.

Basic Concealed Carry and Personal Protection

Missouri is an unrestricted carry or "Constitutional carry" state. State law does not prohibit open or concealed carry, but local jurisdictions are allowed to restrict open carry by individuals without a permit. Weapons posession is still restricted in certain venues.

Missouri has a "shall issue" permit system, meaning a concelaed carry permit must be issued to you if you meet eligibility requirements under state law. One of the requirements is completion of a firearms training course taught by a certified instructor that meets required training standards.

PRS Tactical's concealed carry training exceeds state standards. Students who complete the CCW1 Course will have knowledge and skills that exceed those of the average CCW permit applicant.

Missouri permit holders may carry open or concealed throughout the state except in restricted venues, but fewer venues are restricted for permit holders.

Missouri permit holders also enjoy recognition and recipricity, allowing a firearm to be carried legally in up to 36 states. Please verify state and local laws before traveling, as restrictions on recognition, reciprocity, and carry locations vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Advanced Concealed Carry and Defensive Handgun

For those who choose to carry a firearm or keep one in their home for personal protection and to protect their loved ones, ongoing training is an essential part of your protection strategy. Additional training beyond the CCW1 course provides the opportunity for you to further develop the knowledge, skills, and mindset to help you prevail if you are ever forced to shoot in self-defense.

PRS Tactical is in the process of developing opportunities for advanced and specialized training. Release date is to be determined. Please email the instructor to request notification of future course offerings when they are released.
