Tactical Training

Not at all. Many of our students at Derek Arms Academy have never handled a firearm before taking our class. You’ll receive step-by-step instruction on how to safely hold, load, aim, and fire using a variety of simulators and training tools long before stepping onto the live range.

Our instructors ensure you have the technical skills and confidence needed to perform successfully during the live-fire qualification.

By the end of class, you’ll walk away knowing how to own, carry, and operate your firearm safely and confidently.

While it may seem like a way to de-escalate a situation, brandishing a firearm can easily be misinterpreted and lead to serious legal trouble. The person you were trying to deter could later claim that you threatened them — and that can result in a felony charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

That’s why most concealed carry instructors and self-defense attorneys emphasize: Never draw your firearm unless you are legally justified and prepared to use it.

Having a legal defense membership such as USCCA or US LawShield can protect you from losing your livelihood while defending yourself in court.

Here’s the issue: when you draw your firearm and point it at someone, even if you never fire, you’ve technically placed them in fear of imminent harm — which legally qualifies as assault.

Because you’re using a firearm, that becomes aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a serious felony in most states carrying potential prison time from 10 to 20 years.

Even if your intent was self-defense, prosecutors may still file charges unless you have strong legal representation.

That’s why memberships like USCCA or US LawShield are so valuable — they provide 24/7 legal defense coverage and attorney representation if you ever need to justify your actions in court.

Both USCCA and US LawShield are reputable options trusted by responsible gun owners nationwide. Each offers legal defense coverage, emergency hotlines, and training resources to keep you protected both before and after an incident.

Finding practical firearm training for self-defense in North Carolina is easily accessible through specialized academies that provide state-certified instruction.
