It was a pleasure training with you this weekend, AJ! Congratulations on the accomplishment. Well done! And I'm so glad you enjoyed the course. Tiffany

Will do!

If she's in the market for a female instructor who shoots shotguns from the shoulder, I volunteer! We'd love to have her train with us over in Murfreesboro. Happy to work with her on handguns too if that's her preference.

Thanks! You're too kind. I'm still working on a magic potion for cloning myself and squeezing an extra 40 hours into any given day... Soon as that's done, I'll get started on that book! (Although I'd probably make a lot more money just selling the magic potion...)

I spoke to the Handgun Permit Office in Nashville on January 2nd for an update on reciprocity. I was told that all 50 states have been contacted, but so far only 13 states have responded. Of the 13, most were states that already did not recognize TN's permit, so (of course) they simply declined to recognize the new CCP as well. I did not ask about any specific states confirming that they will honor TN's CCP. However, the Handgun Unit did say that one state - North Dakota - has already confirmed that it will honor Tennessee's ENHANCED Carry permit but will NOT honor Tennessee's Concealed Carry Permit. I suspect there might be a few other states that will do the same (recognize the ECP but not the CCP). Also, I've seen Facebook posts recently that indicate that reciprocity will be exactly the same across the board for ECP and for CCP. That is false. I did specifically ask about that, and the Handgun Unit confirmed that is false (again, see North Dakota as an example). The Handgun Unit said they could not give me an estimated time or date by which they expect to have complete information about CCP reciprocity. Bottom line, reciprocity for the new CCP is still being determined. If you want a concrete list of states that recognize the TN permit, and you want to avoid any uncertainty (especially if you travel a lot), I'd just go ahead and go for the ECP.

I agree, Tom's book is excellent. And I'm so glad it's now also available in digital format! :-)

Thanks so much, AJ!

Hi, Ladies! Heads up - We just posted two new ladies-only classes over in the Training forum. Here's a link to the info (posted by @Citizens Safety Academy). Women on Target (Feb. 23) is a fun instructional shooting clinic, and Women's Concealed Carry (May 11) is where we really start working on holster selection and technique. Both are in the Murfreesboro area. There's more info (and lots of photos!) on our website, but if you have any questions, just reply here or shoot me an email - Tiffany@CitizensSafety.com. I hope some of you will join us! Tiffany www.CitizensSafety.com

Thanks so much, @Whisper! It was great to meet you in person, and we look forward to training with you more in the future. So glad you enjoyed the class! - Tiffany

Congrats, @Cruel Hand Luke!!! Awesome pistol wizardry as always! And I've got a bunch of photos and videos for you too. Hopefully it won't take me 80 years to get it organized and send you a link.

Hi, everyone! Just thought I'd check back in and tell you all what a FABULOUS time we had at the Women on Target Clinic this past Saturday. The class was completely sold out (actually over-sold), and we had ladies of all stripes -- from teenagers to grandmas; from ladies who had never fired a shot to at least one who teaches classes herself, and everyone in between. It was a blast. We're already getting requests to schedule another iteration of this class, so stay tuned! For those who are interested, we'll be posting photos on our Facebook page soon. A thousand thank-yous to everyone who wished us well and helped us spread the word. - Tiffany

Thanks for the well wishes! I'm excited to report that we are officially sold out. Looks like a wide range of backgrounds, ages, and experience levels. Should be fun. Looking forward to working with these ladies.
