Riley Bowman interviews Don West from CCW Safe to get a behind the scenes look at what goes into a self-defense case.

We're going to get into the nitty-gritty of what really goes on behind the scenes in a self-defense case like that. What sort of things should you know ahead of time to prepare yourself in the event you find yourself in a situation you cannot get out of…physically or legally.
