Here are a couple resources worth checking out that may help you decide. The Virginia Citizens Defense League has a legal plan comparison you can download at: https://vcdl.org/page/legal-plan-comparison John Lovell speaking with Andrew Branca about various plans. https://warriorpoetsociety.us/should-you-get-concealed-carry-insurance/

I don't have experience directly with USCCA except for attending some of the local education (recruiting) sessions they have done. I believe they are reputable and you wouldn't be making a mistake going with them. That said, I joined CCW Safe after spending a great deal of time comparing. It is like so many other things, they all have some strengths that you wish the others also had. After reading all the fine print, I concluded that CCW Safe had a higher probability of providing more coverage (criminal and civil), giving more say/choice in representation, had an advisory board of highly reputable individuals, etc... The fact that USCCA has a lawsuit by a member and that USCCA had not issued a statement (at least not at the time of my decision) did not weigh in their favor. Yes, I do understand that I do not know all the details, but it is concerning.

Membership is $35 a year. Everyone should be paying this to support this site and all the efforts that are put into it, anyway. The way the world is working against us, putting some things behind a paywall may not be such a bad idea, especially such a reasonably priced one that supports a great cause/site.

Seems very reasonable. Places some hurdles in the way for scammers but a legitimate individual can easily navigate past them.

Appreciate the time you took to detail your experience for us. I will check it out.

Sorry for the late post but I received this post as well.

I meant "not. I have not been receiving emails from the Classifieds. I followed some individual classified items this morning to see if I received notifications from them. I will let you know if I start to receive email notifications from these individual posts.

I have not started to receive email notifications for the Firearms classifieds i follow. It looks like there have been a couple of new posts in the past few hours. I have added Tactics and Training today to what I follow.

I'm definitely ok with you using my account.

David, My whole career has been and is supporting tech and I have often been the "one man show". I understand the difficulty, am sympathetic and respect the all the time & effort you put in. I also believe we have all been very patient with this issue and considering how important it is to all of us, continue to be. But we have not heard much back from anyone on this in a while so I believe we have all been wondering if it was still being looked into. TGO is more to all of us than just a Forum, it is a community, so please trust that we all respect that and those who use there time to keep it in existence, very much. I thought it was understood that the issue was with the Classifieds portion of the forum. We have been discussing how we do not receive notifications from the Classified section but do receive email notifications on things pertaining to this thread. As ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ stated above, I believe I am getting all emails except for those from the Classifieds. I’ve documented many of the things I’ve tried such as changing email delivery to a Gmail account, which didn’t resolve anything (I’ve since changed back to my main account). I’ve tried “toggling” the Follow on and off on a forum. Tried following individual items/posts on the Classifieds forum, logged in, logged out, tried different combinations. Etc… I would love for this to be a brain fart moment on my part and a simple fix that I have overlooked. I just don’t know what else to try or who to contact. This forum is the only tech support I am aware of for this site. That is why we have posted our concerns here. Please excuse anything that does not flow well in the above. It has been a long day. Thank you again for your time,

Thank you MemHeli. I tried following the forum using the other link you mentioned on Monday. Still nothing here as far as notifications for the classified forum. I'd say that I'm getting a litle upset but that wouldn't be accurate as I have been extremely upset about this for a while now. This absolutely sucks and there doesn't seem to be anything that is going to be done to rectify it.

Just touching base on this. I am still not receiving email notifications for posts to the Classifieds Forum. I did switch my address to a gmail address a week and a half ago but still no luck. I do receive notifications about content added to threads I am a part of such as this one, at my original email address and now at my gmail address. Has anyone who was not receiving email notification began to receive notifications they were not receiving before?

That is very similar to what I am seeing, as well. Still no notification when something new is posted but I receive email notifications when someone adds to a followed thread. I believe I can eliminate the issue being that my email provider is blocking emails from TGO. I have always been receiving the notifications when something was added to a post I was following, just not the new additions to a forum. I changed my email address to a gmail account I have and am now receiving some notifications on it and some to my prior email address. (This could be due to the change just being made yesterday). I do not believe this is an issue with emails not getting through as I had been receiving TGO email on my original provider, I am now receiving them on gmail, my original provider allows almost everything through ( and leaves it to its clients to filter their own email and I had also white-listed the heck out of TGO in the spam filter they provide (TGO email gets through & is not redirected to the spam folder).

Copy. I started a separate Thread on this issue, which I see you have responded to. I inquired here as well after seeing that there were posts within this thread regarding email notifications, as well. I will be trying your suggestion posted on the other Thread of trying a different email provider such as gmail to see if this clears up my issue, though I do receive email notifications for other forums such as ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ stated.

Thank you, David. I will try using another email provider to see if this clears it up. Though it interesting that email notifications are getting through for my posts on this Support Forum but not for the Classifieds Forum.

Thank you for the reply, Oh Shoot. I have experienced it in the past, as well and noticed the comments of others when it happens. It usually is rectified, which is why I have waited a couple months before posting. I have not changed email service and have made sure that the TGO's email address is white listed. I'll bang on it some more. As they say, "Push buttons 'til it works".

Does anyone have anything on this? I know I'm not the only one experiencing it.

Was there ever any head way on this????? I am not receiving notifications, either.

I have not been receiving email notifications when a new item is listed or content is posted in forums I am following. I have checked my settings, tried toggling them off and on, logged out and back in and almost every combination of these that I can think of over the past couple of months. I have also checked my Notification Settings and followed the advise that applies in the thread 'Browser Notifications Disabled'. Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry. Original post not under correct subject. I have removed.

Katie Couric Apologizes for 'Misleading' Gun Documentary http://www.npr.org/2016/05/26/479655743/manipulative-editing-reflects-poorly-on-couric-and-her-gun-documentary It must be amazing to have such weak explanations for your actions accepted.

It was also Fox 17 that did the "Special Report: on Gun Background Checks...   http://fox17.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/special-report-gun-background-check-debate-17581.shtml

I thought the description said you get two cycles of HIGH.  They must have cut back due to the "economy".   TMF, I have spent well over two days per category on Youtube looking at Builds, Packs, Flashlights, Knives, Cars/Trucks, Tools and Girls.  I will submit a detailed rundown for my certificates.  Is it $5 each or is there a combo pack?  I would prefer premium paper so let me know if there is an up charge.   With my current level of experience and the info I have gathered, I figured I was probably pretty close to competent.  Plus, my daughter's old man has this ultimate set of tools.   I think referring back to TGO as a resource is the way to go, as suggested.  I can buy a lot of steaks and refreshing beverages for $450+ and get to meet a few new faces.   Everyone have a great week,

I am not sure about the/any certification.  The description page states, "Armorers will be certified in the proper maintenance, care, and repair of these weapons systems, including semi-auto and select-fire trigger systems." but I would have to inquire on specifics of that statement.   $450 for two days of training does not seem like an excessive amount for a course depending on its content and the quality of the instruction, even factoring in food and boarding but you are correct that I would probably be better served by taking advantage of the resources available to me being a member of this group.  Heck, I'm betting that a nice meal will probably gain me some quality help and a fun afternoon.  Part of my wanting to take this class is that it would be a bit of a "hangout with the guys" type get away.   Maybe we will be able to hear from someone who had first had knowledge of this offering to see what their thoughts are as well.   Thanks for all of the feedback.

  Thanks for the feedback. I am strongly leaning towards getting both a White Oak and a Black Hole Weaponry barrel.  It has been a good year and who knows what/when the next thing will happen that will make them in short supply.
