FIREARMS, DEFENSE, AND THE LAW

By Federal Way Firearms Lawyer

MARK KNAPP

At

HOLMES HARBOR ROD & GUN CLUB
3334 East Brooks Hill Road,
Langley, WA 98260

February 23rd., from 5pm. To 8pm.

In today’s world, if you carry a gun, have a gun for home defense, like to hunt, or even just shoot in local club competition, it is essential that you have a good understanding of the laws pertaining to firearms in our state. Even if you don’t own a gun but think you may want to get one someday, this class is for you. This class will provide information that will help everyone from beginners to experienced gun owners. Even if you have taken other classes that focus on the laws of armed self-defense, the classroom discussion will help you to review and anticipate important issues.

The class will include, but will not be limited to:

1. Who should carry?
2. Concealed carry and open carry options, including Washington State case law pertaining to unlawful display of a weapon.
3. How to carry your weapon.
4. Deploying deadly force.
5. When and where you can carry.
6. How to interact with law enforcement before, during and after an incident.
7. Threat response planning for home & business.
8. Stress psychology.
9. Preparing for the aftermath of a justified self-defense scenario.

The presentation will include topics such as stopping home invasions, use of force and interacting with law enforcement after an armed encounter with deadly force.

The cost of the class is $49.00 per person, but if you bring your spouse, their ticket is only an additional $25.00, so be sure to bring your wife. This is a class you both should attend! Tickets will be available at the door.

There will be absolutely no handling of weapons during class or on the premises. Thus, your pistol, if any, should remain in a holster or other secure location while in the class.

We promise a class that is interesting, fun, and that will keep you safe, out of trouble, and out of court!
