Event: Important Laws That Michigan Firearm Owners Must Know By Valentines Day of 2024

 New Seminar: Important Laws That Michigan Firearm Owners Must Know By Valentines Day of 2024

During the past legislative session, the state of Michigan passed significant and sweeping firearm laws that are of high interest and concern to anyone who is or will potentially soon become a gun owner:

- Red Flag Law

This law enables the state to potentially raid your residence at gun-point with no advance warning to confiscate your guns. If you survive the encounter, you will have to legally petition a court at significant financial expense to have your guns returned and have your God-given right to own them restored.

- Firearm Storage Law

This new law provides for significant fines and lengthy incarceration in prison for persons who are convicted of not properly securing their guns.

- Rifle and Shotgun Registration Law

This new law provides for fines and jail time for persons who do not register their rifles and shotguns.

These new gun laws go into effect in Michigan on Valentine's Day of 2024!

This seminar is specifically designed for the following people:

- Michigan residents who have guns at home

- Michigan residents who may buy guns

- Michigan residents with guns or CPLs

There is little time left to make yourself responsibly aware of these new laws before they take effect!

Not knowing these laws or claiming ignorance is no excuse!

The penalties are potentially harsh, severe, and costly.

Penalties for violations of the new gun laws can be as high as 15 years of imprisonment and/or $10,000 in fines!

A representative from Firearms Legal Protection (FLP) will also be present to give a timely and critical presentation on how gun owners, who are charged with these new crimes, can responsibly and affordably defend themselves from potential criminal charges and fines brought by the state.

Legally Armed In Detroit will be organizing and conducting a two hour seminar on Saturday, December 16th at Recoil Firearms in Taylor, Michigan.

Attendees will be empowered with information and suggestions to limit their exposure on this newly emerging gun owner's landscape.

To meet the demand for this training, one session will held at 12 noon and another will be held at 4pm.

Advance registration is required!

Tuition for this two hour class is only $25.

Registration at at the door is $35.

Seating is extremely limited because I was inspired by a phone call I received from a guy in Florida. Somehow, he called me and I heard his story and thought I could help someone locally avoid his fate if I quickly organized a seminar.

This may be the only time I ever offer this event.

This event is sponsored by Rick Ector of Legally Armed In Detroit, a local gun rights organization that has provided free firearms training for 9,000 Michigan women over the past twelve years. Ector serves on the National Rifle Association (NRA) Board of Directors and is a life member of both the NRA and the Gun Owners of America (GOA).

 Rick Ector's Michigan Concealed Pistol License (CPL) Class - Sunday, October 29, 2023 - Tuition $159 - 9am


Be Trained By The Best! As seen on the Tucker Carlson Tonight Show and Fox & Friends!

YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION IS 100 PERCENT GUARANTEED OR YOU GET YOUR MONEY BACK!

Class DATE: Sunday, October 29, 2023 - RSVP NOW

If you have a desire to qualify for a Concealed Pistol License (CPL), so that you and your family will become safe, register for our next class.

RSVP NOW: Sunday, October 29, 2023

Everyone claims to be the best. I am going to show you why we are the best.

Our classroom sizes are limited to ensure a proper learning environment. You will be comfortable asking questions that are most pertinent to your situation. We understand that being stuffed in a sardine can with 50 other students leaves much to be desired.

Our legal module is taught by a credible practicing criminal defense attorney or otherwise qualified expert. The legal module will NOT consist of an attorney - who never actually practiced law - lecturing on your duties, rights, and responsibilities under the law on a DVD.

RSVP NOW: Sunday, October 29, 2023

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rick-ector-detroit-michigan-ccw-cpl-class-sunday-october-29-2023-159-tickets-746449780387

Your safety and freedom deserve much better. Other providers, if they teach the law at all, only offer up their unprofessional and untested opinions. Our attorney or legal expert is also a regular subject matter expert featured on the news and local talk shows.

I daily receive phone calls from students who took the $50 classes and short-changed themselves. The irony is that is that instead of calling their original trainer, they end up calling me. By this time, all I can do is refer them to competent counsel and hope that the amount of trouble they get into is minimized.

You have a choice: pay just a little more now for a superior class or pay a ton more later.

RSVP NOW: Sunday, October 29, 2023

We provide one-on-one shooting supervision in the shooting booth. We understand that you need expert instruction on the safe operation of a pistol from a whisper away. Unlike the others, we do not have one instructor who watches five students on the range at the same time. We are right there with you each and every step along the way to ensure that you are safe while learning.

Finally, our Chief Instructor actually teaches the class. He does not rely upon the playing of out-of-date and boring DVDs as a substitute for quality and up-to-date instruction. Our training is a 100 percent live and entertaining presentation which ensure that you fully grasp and understand the material well after you leave the classroom. My students see for themselves how fast the GroupOn classes are over before we reach the half-way point of our class.

Our Chief instructor has been training citizens, such as yourself, for over ten years with a 100 percent safety record. We are especially adept at training first-time shooters, women, and seniors. We are not fly-by-night operators. We have seen many training providers come and go over the last decade.

Only quality Instructors have staying power. We are here for the long haul. So, if you ever have a need for follow-up, you know that you can find us - even if it is five years later.

If you want the best instruction, you have to be taught by the best. You deserve it, your family deserves, and your safety at home and out in the streets requires it. Don't be penny-wise and pound foolish with your safety. Go with the best. Me.

When my students call me, they are referring family members and friends to take our class. When graduates from other training classes call me, they were failed by their instructors and need serious legal help. Get it done right the first time.

DO NOT TAKE OUR CLASS IF...

- You don't want a detailed 2 hour live lecture from a respected and practicing legal authority on the law. In this class, you will learn the law!

- You are comfortable with up to 60 sixty other students stuffed into a classroom with you. In most common classes, there is never enough time to get all of your questions answered. In my class you will be comfortable in an environment conducive for learning.

- You don't want to be one-on-one with a Firearm Instructor in the shooting booth with you. Most instructors line up 7 students at a time and have them shoot at the same time. There is no way he can give the attention you need. We always teach one-on-one in the shooting booth.

- You are not willing to spend at least 8 hours in class to get the best possible start as a CPL-holder. Many teachers cut corners and give you less. They compensate themselves by the low tuition they charge you by teaching less hours. In my class, you will learn everything to give you a great start to safe and responsible firearm ownership.

If you want to take the best CPL Class, enroll in our class!

Lane, Detroit, MI

"Rick is one of a handful of NRA instructors that truly gets what having a CPL is about and why the training is so important. That the merging of an unarmed civilian with someone who has decided to help protect themselves and by extension others takes deliberate actions and training. He understands the logic/reasons behind the science of instruction and can communicate with anyone who joins his class. His teaching style is fluid and well thought out, there is no fluff, no corner cutting, no "well that was close enough" instruction. He is an asset to the community and the best recommendation I can give is that I continue to strongly suggest that my family and friends take his courses." - James Hudgens, Flint, MI

I had the honor of appearing on Charlene Mitchell Rodgers' show on 910AM in the run-up to my annual free firearm training event for women. As you all now know, 910am is no longer a talk-radio news station. In any case, I had been a guest on many shows at that station. This interview obviously will be last at the station. As you guess, we talked about guns. Here are three snippets of talk from that interview...
