Speaker: Tom Marx; Private Consultant
Bio: Tom MarxTom left the Chicago Police Department in 1988 to teach at the Smith & Wesson Academy. His mechanical engineering background led to his posting there as Handgun Product Manager and ultimately he became the head of Smith's Domestic Law Enforcement activities

Tom left S&W to organize a Law Enforcement Division for Michaels of Oregon and he both designed and marketed equipment for them. After leaving Uncle Mike's, he served as the Intellectual Property Director for Blackhawk Products Group.

Tom has been a competitive shooter since the 1970's and has been a firearms instructor and writer specializing in Law Enforcement and Concealed Carry matters since the 1980's.

This seminar is directed to both officers and civilians who carry handguns during the course of their daily lives.
SEMINAR: Methods of Concealed Carry
Concealed Carry Issues and Equipment

This is an illustrated lecture and demonstration program, which is directed to both officers and civilians who carry handguns concealed during the course of their daily activities

Traditionally, little, if any, time has been spent on the subject of Concealed Carry.

In the past, it was often assumed that proficiency on the range transfers to the ability to successfully carry, conceal, and ultimately produce a firearm under the stress of a life-threatening situation.

Thankfully, for the last several decades, the flaws in such thinking have become more obvious and people (both civilians and law enforcement officials) have recognized the need to be more critical in their equipment selection and more comprehensive in their training with it.

This program will deal with overall concepts as well as the building block-like components that must be considered in order to successfully carry and produce a firearm from a concealed location on and (in some cases) off the body.

From gun and holster selection to carrying environments and activities; from clothing to physical shape and conditioning; from women's issues to accessories; we will look at this subject from these prospectives and more, in order to come up with basic guidelines to serve the audience in both studying and selecting equipment and employment methods with a more critical (and informed) eye in the future.
