Insurance

[JDG]

Hello everybody, I've been contemplating purchasing insurance from NRACG or USGCA. Does any one have any experience with carry insurance??

 

[PGRChaplain]

NRA has CarryGuard, I'd be more apt to go with them.

 

[JDG]

I was thinking the same thing. Its one of those things that you hope that you'll never need, but you're glad if you do.

Look into these closely. CarryGuard is a reimbursement plan. You pay everything then they pay you back.

I wouldn't touch the NRA stuff after this stunt anyway. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.us...xcited-getting-kicked-nra-annual-meeting/amp/

Personally I'd will be going with these guys. https://armedcitizensnetwork.org

Money upfront, and the resources of people like Mas Ayoob and the like.

Big tanker has this dead nut right. After nra uninvited carry guard at this years nra show so they had no competition for there roll out of carry guard. That was dirty,there are enough people to go around

Anyone have any experience with the USCCA and their "defense-shield"?

May be my ignorance, but I don't see this as anything but pre-payment on attorney's fees that you'd pay in the event you were sued after shooting someone. Seems like all this does is restrict the defense attorney you'd chose.

if you're interested in fire arm insurance, I have someone in southern Indiana I recommend, he sell's insurance full time, is a gun owner, and huge supporter of the friends of the nra, BUT he sells all kinds of insurance, home, health, life, auto and fire arm specific plans, he's not a site supporter so I wont publish his info, but if your interested I can pm you the info (when you hit your 50 posts) site rules not mine if a moderator says its ok, I'll list the companys contact info (he can sell all over the state)

and if its any consolation he doesn't carry the nra insurance himself!, he uses another company!

There are several different plans from each company. You'll need to do the research.

The company I linked in post #4 is true insurance. You pay a certian amount per year. If you have a self-defense gun use, they pay for everything like bail and attorney fees if needed. You don't pay anything.

This is what I've really been thinking about the past few days so I thought I'd come here to see people's thoughts. The one I hear most about is the uscca one because they have so many ads in so many places.

Anyone have anything newer to say about any of the carry insurance outlets?

I have this. I started a few years ago before NRA came out with theirs. USCCA was also "disinvited" to the NRA convention and I thought they handled the news well. They sent out an announcement that they wouldn't be at the NRA convention but didn't bash the NRA about it. Showed some class. I haven't had to use it so I can't give any personal testimony about their coverage but there are some testimonies out there somewhere. I like the "Concealed Carry" magazine subscription that comes with it. I would do some research to see which has the best features. I did some comparisons a while back and I didn't see anything that NRA had that was better and USCCA was a little cheaper at the time.

Just because they put out a lot of ads. That does not make them any good. They just have a lot of money to spend. THIS IS NOT A JUDGEMENT, JUST AN OPINION.

 

[Tsssst]

Exactly. That's what I meant about uscca. I know the most about them but that's only from their ads, and who has ever released an ad saying "the other company's stuff is better than ours"?

I would have used carry guard, but that whole fiasco with disinviting an established vendor because they were becoming competitors turned me off. I'm a lifer and I feel the convention should showcase our industry as a whole, not use their size to snuff out competitors. I like the idea of the above linked provider that covers bail, that will be the direction I look in.

An LGS shared a Guy Relford post earlier this week that was raising funds for the defense of someone who used their firearm to protect themselves. Really got me thinking about searching out a policy. It's one of those hot and cold things, I look, lose interest and then realize I should get back to looking. I hope my family never has to start a go fund me if I ever needed to use my concealed carry. I'll keep an eye out on here to track options.

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

I use USCCA because they pay as you go. The NRA is a reimbursement if you prevail.

CCW Safe
They seems to be above the table and have a program for retired LEO/MIL.
This is a cool comparison chart somebody put together of the major insurance Companies.
CCW Safe has actually defended somebody in Murder trial to the tune of over 350k.

Not sure if I got this URL from INGO or elsewhere, but seems like a good read.

Protecting Yourself After You Protect Yourself | RECOIL

Curious if any of the INGO lawyers have dealt with customers using any of these insurance plans and what their experience/take was on it and if it worked well, etc.

Based on this article alone, it seems as USCCA is one of the better options, but I haven't researched much beyond my initial read of this.

My input.....Research the **** out of carry insurance. Most of them are snake oil. Personally, I wouldn't waste my money on carry insurance.
