The New
Mexico Concealed
Handgun Course
The above video provides detailed instructions by Fred Behnken on how to safely load and holster your concealed handgun.
Over 450 New Mexico citizens have made the choice
of taking our program. This program is approved for individuals
who would like to apply for the New Mexico concealed handgun
license. This program is an excellent training program for
using a handgun combatively for self-defense.
Security is not just an individual concern but a concern
for your inner circle of friends and family. The more people
that are trained and have a mutual understanding of security
skills the better everyone will be. Students who attend the
program should be thinking in terms of working with their inner
circle to have the maximum safety, so bring your family and
friends. A substantial monetary incentive is provided for
groups to encourage getting your inner circle trained. Security
is a family affair.
PRIVATE
TRAINING FOR GROUPS IS AVAILABLE
People not pursuing a concealed handgun license are
encouraged to attend the program, as well. The program spends a
large percentage of time on firearm safety skills. Teenagers are
encouraged to attend at a nominal charge of $25 dollars with a
parent or responsible adult. Family and group rates for
attending the program are available upon request. Individuals
under 21 years of age are not eligible for state concealed
handgun licensing but will benefit greatly from the legal and
safety aspects of the program. It is a good investment for young
people.
