## Resource

In this episode Ken Anderson, the new USCCA Delta Defense representative for Northern Wyoming, explains how USCCA combines industry-leading self-defense liability insurance with the Protector Academy training program. He walks through real member incidents, membership tiers (Gold, Platinum, Elite), and the immediate legal and financial support members receive after a self-defense event. The conversation also covers in-person and online training partnerships like WyoTac, plans for local USCCA chapters and community outreach, and practical steps to sign up and get protected and trained. https://10thwhiskey.com/ Enter dearshooter at checkout for 15% off https://www.lucidoptics.com/ https://www.wyotac.com/ Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed here are our own and may not represent those of the companies we represent, or any entity affiliated to it.
