Staying sharp with a concealed firearm isn’t something you do once. Skills fade quickly without structured, realistic practice. The CCW Self-Defense Challenge is is a defensive pistol competition and your ongoing defensive-pistol maintenance program — designed to keep you confident, capable, and ready for real-world threats.

The CCW Self-Defense Challenge is a monthly defensive pistol competition that blends real-world scenarios, timed performance, and practical self-defense decision-making. It’s designed to keep your skills sharp long after you earn your permit.
