Whether you are a beginner in the personal protection arena or you are looking to expand your knowledge level, this event is for you.

During this three-day interactive and educational event, the NRA Personal Protection Expo will feature a wide range of educational seminars and clinics instructed and demonstrated by industry leading experts and training instructors. Participants will gain immeasurable knowledge in personal protection, defense tactics, home defense and the best concealed carry practices.

The home defense seminars will cover creating a home defense plan, preventative security measures, responding to intruders and product selection.

There will be an exhibit hall packed with hundreds of top companies including firearm and knife manufacturers, concealment and storage products, home defense solutions and tactical gear for attendees to peruse.
